Activity template fields
In addition to basic fields such as Name and Description, each activity template contains additional fields that depend on the template type. For example, the Notes field is present in Call Record, Schedule Item, and Task templates, but the Default Start Time field is in only Schedule Item templates. The following table describes each activity template field and lists the templates in which the field is present.
