I just created a new environment, but Word Template is not available when I open a Work Order record. It is available when I open other tables, such as Case.
How do I enable Word Templates on Work Orders?
Hi AlexEisenhart,
This is because there is an enable rule(FieldService.Form.msdyn_workorder.EnableRule.ShowSimplifiedCommands) of work order entity to hide it. If you want to enable it, you could delete the enable rule or set invert result to true.
Note: Please backup your solution before you modify it.
Please follow the steps:
1.Add Work Order entity to solution and load it with Ribbon Workbench.
2.Find the word template button and customize the command.
3. Delete the FieldService.Form.msdyn_workorder.EnableRule.ShowSimplifiedCommands rule or modify it like this:
4. If the Mscrm.WordTemplatesFCBEnabled is empty, add a step in it.
5.Publish the solution.

Hello AlexEisenhart ,Thanks to for providing the above steps.
There is also another simple way is to enable "Show Simplified Work Order Commands" from Field Service settings.Please find below a screenshot:Hope the above will help.
Thank you!
Thank you and EBMRay! I tried using Ribbon Workbench, but I didn't see any rules on Work Order or the Word Template button in my environment. Clearly the FieldService.Form.msdyn_workorder.EnableRule.ShowSimplifiedCommands rule was somewhere that I couldn't find though, because disabling the Show Simplified Work Order Commands resolved the issue.
Thank you again! While I have you here, would you mind if I asked you about another Word Template issue that I've run into? Any idea why Case Resolutions wouldn't be populating for templates on Case? community.dynamics.com/.../when-creating-word-template-for-case-case-resolution-is-missing-from-1-n-relationship-list
