**Step 6:**

Proceed to make changes to the project, starting with the project name. For instance, name it "Test Template".

**Step 8:**

If the template isn't account-specific, manually select an account.

**Step 9:**

If the template is account-specific, the account will automatically be displayed or selected.

**Step 10:**

Choose a start date for your project. The start date you choose determines **all task dates** — each template task's dates are calculated from this start date using the template's day offsets. Any dependencies defined in the template also carry over to the new project.

<Note>
  See [Task Dependencies & Auto-Cascade Dates](/projects/task_dependencies_and_cascading) for how dependencies and date offsets work.

**Step 11:**

The due date will be automatically updated based on the predefined template, but it's editable if needed.

**Step 14:**

After completing these steps, all tasks associated with the template will be included in your project.
