We’ve intentionally created super generic templates that can be filled out quickly for the most basic of administrative tasks. We’ve also created pretty detailed and complex business templates that suit more complex needs.

Who should use basic business templates?
Our basic business templates are available for everyone to use—that’s how simple they are to work with.
