Overview

This article describes the following topics related to using model templates in Logica:


Creating a model from a template

To create a new model from one of our templates, simply click on the blue "+" button in the top right corner and select the appropriate template in the drop-down menu.

Select the desired template from the list to create a new model that can be further customized. Type to search by category or name.


Customizing the model with components

Once you create a new model from a template, you can customize everything! These templates are meant to help get you started quickly as well as give you ideas and best practices to use in your models. You can update variable names, logic, and values, and even add in pre-built logic from our component template library.


Template Library Overview

We have several model and component templates in our library. Models templates will create a new model and component templates can be inserted into existing models.


Component templates vs model templates

There are two types of templates in the Logica library: component templates and model templates.

Models templates are used to create a brand new model. Component templates are used to insert into existing models.

Component Templates

Component templates are pre-built components, or re-usable logic, that can be inserted into existing models. They are typically smaller in scope than model templates, and are designed to perform specific calculations. These templates are inserted into existing models.

Model Templates

Model templates are pre-built models that can help you get started quickly with Logica. They are typically larger in scope than component templates, and typically contain multiple components that are designed to work together. Using a model template will create a brand new model with pre-build components already in place.
