# Manage vendors list template

#### What is it ?

This feature lets you apply templates to your consent notices. A template defines specific parameters for vendors, linked purposes, publisher restrictions, stacks, SPI, and categories.

By using templates, you can update the Vendor Lists across multiple consent notices simultaneously, saving considerable time.
