Question:

Is it possible to use a template when manually creating physical items? For example we often add items with the same very specific data such as a note, description and other fields.  If that data was already filled in as part of a template it would both save us a lot of time and also prevent errors.

Answer:

This is possible by using the "Physical Item Template" functionality.

For details on how to do to this as well as well as in depth examples see:
