We’re updating Templafy: You’ll need to update your user profile afterwards

On Tuesday 17 June, we’re upgrading the template tool Templafy to the latest version, Templafy Hive. All Templafy users will need to update their user profile after the upgrade.

Update: Due to unforseen circumstances the implementation date has been changed from 10 June to 17 June.

Templafy, the system used to manage AU’s templates in Word, PowerPoint and Excel, will soon undergo a necessary upgrade. As part of this upgrade, the user interface for accessing templates will change slightly, but all basic functions will remain the same. The upgrade will also make it easier to access templates directly in the different programmes.

In PowerPoint, the default template will be preconfigured with Aarhus University's font and colour palette, replacing the current blank template.

What you need to do

The first time you open Word, PowerPoint or Excel after the update, you’ll be prompted to update your user profile in Templafy. You’ll need to enter standard personal information like your name, email, place of work and so on.

The system will guide you, and you can retrieve all the information automatically by clicking ‘Please complete your user profile to access all templates in the Aarhus University library’. See the screenshots below.

Sign in to the online version with your AU ID

You’ll still be able to access the Templafy templates at office.au.dk. But it will no longer possible to use an email address of your choice – you’ll need to use your AU ID.
