The implementation team generally provide standard templates and JV policies which company needs to review and provide their feedback to align with it standard processes and policies. The implementation team can then customize the system to neet the company requirements.

Of course the vendor should provide and does provide templates that enable the process.  
Question is however unclear as to who provides the templates. - the product vendor ? The implementation partner ? Other ?

Please understand that I’m all cases the templates provided by the vendor will need some level of customization specific to the chart and terminology used.

We use blackline for posting our journals in SAP. We have standard templates that captures company code, cost center and journal type which is uploaded in blackline for posting. These templates will be customized by blackline team during implementation.

We are in the early stages of planning a Workday Financials implementation and are evaluating the best approach for a MVP deployment. Given the scale and complexity of Workday Financials, we're particularly interested in understanding if anyone recommends or observes as best practices for MVP deployment models. Specifically, we’d like to know: Does anyone have a suggestion a phased or modular rollout for core financial modules (e.g., GL, AP, AR)? Is there a baseline configuration or functional scope typically considered MVP for Workday Financials? How do organizations balance quick time-to-value versus long-term scalability and integration when adopting Workday Financials as MVP?
