Hello Bill, That is great. Since we migrated to EG in 2015 we have been using the method described on the random magic spells wiki page[1] to manage all our receipt templates centrally. Local management for each client profile seems like it would be a nightmare for us since every single site uses the same receipt templates with one variation for hold slip style. I was assuming I would be able to setup something similar when we upgrade to the web client, so I’m extremely in favor of this.

In short, templates would be managed via a new template management UI and template content would be generated on the server, instead of within the client. I see a number of possible benefits to this, beyond just the Angular migration. I have jotted some notes here: https://wiki.evergreen-ils.org/doku.php?id=dev:server_print_templates I would love hear feedback. If it the idea holds water, I'll open an LP. Thanks, -b
