System Profile Templates have been expanded with new alternate options which allow for more flexibility in pre-defining permissions. You can now specify up to 5 alternate profile options for each system within the template. These alternate options can be used for variations of the standard profile.
Once alternate system options are defined you can now create up to 255 different combinations of standard and alternate profile options. When creating or modifying a user system code, these alternate combinations can be chosen from the list of template options. Previously this would have required multiple templates to accomplish the same permission definition across multiple systems and simplifies the management of the templates.
