Each aircraft's AFM will describe the procedures to be used and any performance penalties required.

This is what Embraer say for the E-jets:
Normal Takeoff up to 10 kt tailwind: Pilot lines up the airplane on the runway, applies brakes and adjusts thrust to 40% N1, when engines stabilize at 40% N1, releases brakes and advances thrust levers to TOGA detent.
NOTE: For normal takeoff with tailwind up to 10 kt, performance data is valid from the point where takeoff thrust (N1 target) is achieved.
Normal Takeoff with tailwind above 10 kt (If allowed by AFM):
Refer to TAIL WIND TAKEOFF of this section.

Static Takeoff: Pilot lines up the airplane on the runway, applies brakes, adjusts thrust to 40% N1, when engines stabilize at 40% N1, advances thrust levers to TOGA detent. Release the brakes when the takeoff thrust (N1 target) is achieved.
NOTE: Due to the possibility of compressor stall, a static takeoff is not recommended with a crosswind greater than 25 kt.

Rolling Takeoff: Pilot lines up the airplane with the centerline and, if cleared for takeoff, adjusts thrust Levers to 40% N1 without applying the brakes. When engines stabilize at 40% N1, pilot moves thrust levers to TOGA detent.
NOTE: For rolling takeoffs, performance data is valid from the point where takeoff thrust (N1 target) is achieved.

Note that using a normal take-off or rolling take-off technique requires a greater take-off distance.
