"Projects" question

[platinumaa]

hello all, i am a contractor and looking into using microsoft projects to make my schedules, ghantt charts. i would like to know if projects offers 2 features

- templates? once i make a ghantt chart i would like to save it as a template and import it into new projects


- todo items? i currently use BUILDERTREND and it has a feature that we can add TODO items that are attached to/set to pop up when a specific item/task in the schedule occurs. for example, on the schedule there is an item POUR LINTEL. i would like a task to pop up on that day that says HAS LINTEL INSPECTION PASSED, that way it reminds people to verify if it passed inspection before ordering concrete

i appreciate the help. thank you everyone!
