About Template Groups

A Template Group serves as a container for multiple Measurement Location Template and Checkpoint Condition that are connected to one another in a Route. When you apply a Template Group to a Route, GE Digital APM creates corresponding Measurement Locations and Checkpoint Conditions in the Route in the same structure as defined in the Template Group. In this way, you can add multiple Measurement Locations and Checkpoint Conditions to a Route simultaneously.

Note: Template Groups should contain no more than 150 Measurement Location Templates.

A Template Group contains the following records:

Unlike the structure of a Route, the records that make up a Template Group are not linked to one another in the database through a Relationship family. Instead, the structure of the records that are displayed in the UI is stored in multiple records that are created automatically in the Checkpoint Template Sequence family. Throughout the documentation, when we refer to the relationship between the records that make up an Template Group, we will not use the term linked. Instead, we use the term associated to differentiate between records that are related to one another through a physical link in the database and those that are related to one another only visually in the User Interface.
