September 18, 2020 - Microsoft released an update to Microsoft Office products last week. Your organization may have installed this update on PCs and servers running Office 365 and standalone Office software. The update has been identified to cause issues that prevent GP Word Templates from functioning. This same update has also caused issues that impact GP Integration Manager and eOne SmartConnect.

The Word Template issue causes a message like the above to be displayed when a Template report is generated by GP.

Microsoft is aware of the issue and is working on a Hotfix. For the time being, the only way to resolve the issue is to roll back the Office update.
Please follow the steps in this article to roll back the Office update. https://support.microsoft.com/en-ca/help/2770432/how-to-revert-to-an-earlier-version-of-office-2013-or-office-2016-clic
