New custom templates must be tested before activation. Built-in templates are ready immediately.
A test can pass while some fields are blank for the chosen case. Check whether the data exists and whether the testing user has access. A passed technical test does not prove the report is complete or suitable for its audience.
After a successful test, a tested template offers Activate. Select it to make the template available for case report generation, subject to case-type restrictions and user permissions.
Read the recorded error, correct the source document or missing source data, and test the corrected template before activation. Do not activate based only on a valid upload.
Generate a report through a case and open it in Word to check layout and content. Template testing and visual review serve different purposes.
