File properties

The File Properties dialog shows the characteristics of the template, such as the file name, author, creation date and keywords. It is also possible to add custom properties; customer name, for example.
To open the File Properties dialog, select File > Properties.

When a template report is generated, the file properties are part of it (see Exporting a template report).
The properties are available in scripts via the template object; see the Script API: template.
