You can create a vacancy by manually entering values in all relevant fields or more commonly, you can copy values from an existing vacancy or template, then change just those values required for the new vacancy. Vacancy templates are vacancy records, where the value of the Status field is Template. For both methods, start from the Vacancy home page.
