6/13/2011 8:07:00 PM Paul Y Posts: 3	I am running Secret Server 6.5 and have some issues with the existing templates. If I change / remove templates, what is the impact to existing records? If I remove fields from an existing template, what is the impact to existing records? Thanx Paul Young Newcrest Mining Ltd

If you remove a field from a template, all Secrets for that template will also lose that field and the value/history associated with it. If you deactivate a template, the Secrets for that template will still appear in Secret Server, but the user will not be able to create any more Secrets for that template. Changes to the Template name, Expiration, etc will propagate to the Secrets for that template. Please let me know if this doesn't answer your question. Jacob Stucky Thycotic Support
