When designing checklist templates:

- keep templates clear and easy to follow
- avoid unnecessary complexity in conditions
- reuse existing templates when possible
- document template purpose clearly
- test your checklist manually to see if everything looks as expected before setting your version to active

A well-structured template ensures that operators can fill in checklists efficiently and that the resulting data remains reliable and traceable.
