+## Previewing and Executing Previous Template Tasks
+
+Each execution of a template is treated as a unique task, identifiable by its own unique ID. To view a list of previously executed template tasks, navigate to the `Create` page and access the `Task List` from the context menu (represented by the vertical ellipsis, or 'kebab menu', icon in the upper right corner).

+
+If you wish to re-run a previously executed template, navigate to the template tasks page. Locate the desired task and select the `Start Over` option from the context menu.
+
+![Template Start Over](../../assets/software-templates/template-start-over.png)
+
+This action will initiate a new execution of the selected template, pre-populated with the same parameters as the previous run, but these parameters can be edited before re-execution.
+
+In the event of a failed template execution, the `Start Over` option can be used to re-execute the template. The parameters from the original run will be pre-filled, but they can be adjusted as needed before retrying the template.
