Requirement Templates Guide
Create, edit, and clone requirement templates with best practices.
Requirement templates are reusable insurance standards that you assign to projects. Instead of configuring requirements per project, define a template once and apply it across multiple projects.
Creating a Template
- Navigate to Settings > Requirement Templates.
- Click New Template.
- Enter a template name (e.g., "Standard Contractor" or "High-Risk Vendor").
- Enable the coverage types you require (GL, Workers Comp, Auto, Umbrella).
- Set minimum limits for each enabled coverage type.
- Toggle required provisions (Additional Insured, Waiver of Subrogation, etc.).
- Click Save Template.
Editing a Template
- Open the template from the list.
- Modify any field — coverage types, limits, or provisions.
- Click Save Changes.
Changes Propagate
Editing a template affects all projects that use it. Inori re-verifies active certificates in those projects automatically. Review the impact before saving.
Cloning a Template
To create a variation of an existing template:
- Open the template you want to copy.
- Click Clone Template from the actions menu.
- A new template is created with the same settings and a "(Copy)" suffix.
- Rename it and adjust the requirements as needed.
Best Practices
- Name templates by risk tier — e.g., "Low Risk," "Standard," "High Risk" — so project managers can quickly choose the right one.
- Start with industry defaults — Inori provides suggested limits for common industries. Use these as a baseline.
- Avoid over-customization — Fewer templates are easier to maintain. Aim for 3-5 templates that cover your main vendor categories.
- Review annually — Insurance market conditions and legal requirements change. Schedule a yearly review of your templates.
