| − | Templates define the output of event actions. Some actions require a linked template without which the complete event cannot be successfully triggered. Other actions do not require templates.

| | | | |
| − | Each template is further associated with a set of event variables that the system passes through from the triggered event. Each event type has a different set of variables available that can be configured in the template as required. In addition, pre-defined template types are used for each event action type. For example, the ''Account Password Changed'' event has separate templates for the ''Log ''action, the ''Notification'' action, and the ''Message'' action. A number of variables are available for use in each of these templates, such as customer number, customer name, password, customer primary email, and address.
