Whenever users select from a dropdown a notification template to use for a specific purpose, the values in the dropdown come from a list maintained from the list value maintenance function. Using a list allows you to localize the template names.
The list is called NOTIFICATION_TEMPLATE_ **categoryCode**, where **categoryCode** is the code representing the category to which the template belongs.
For example, templates related to renewal belong to the RENEW category. The available renewal templates are in the list NOTIFICATION_TEMPLATE_RENEW.
For each template in the list:
- The list value code is the template name
- The description is the text to display in the dropdown
For information on working with list values, see Editing and localizing list values.
Not all templates can be selected from a dropdown. Here are the current lists for the template selection dropdowns:
| NOTIFICATION_TEMPLATE_CERNT | Activation certificate notifications |
| NOTIFICATION_TEMPLATE_CONTR | Contracted-related notifications |
| NOTIFICATION_TEMPLATE_INVAC | Invite to Activate notifications |
| NOTIFICATION_TEMPLATE_ORDER | Order-related notifications |
| NOTIFICATION_TEMPLATE_RENEW | Renewal-related notifications |
| NOTIFICATION_TEMPLATE_RETUN | Order return authorization notifications |
| NOTIFICATION_TEMPLATE_TEK | Technical support notifications |
| NOTIFICATION_TEMPLATE_UPGRA | Automated upgrade notifications |
When you create a new template in one of these categories, you must add the new template to the list.
