Word Merge blog gives message like: Creating document or attachment failed.Entity: OpportunityID:Mandatory: Opportunity

When merging the message "couldn't create letter" will force you to check the Word Merge Log [Documents / Reports / Word Merge / Log]. If the message is like "Creating document or attachment failed.Entity: OpportunityID:Mandatory: Opportunity" one should realize that the Word Merge Template is linked to a document type. And a document type has links, so in this example the link to the Opportunity had been set to Mandatory, but the Opportunity field didn't even appear or has been filled in the request from which you're merging. Then you'll get this message, so check the document type.

New Word Merge (as from PU250) sending e-mail keeps on giving message "Mandatory: Sender"

Allthough the e-mail adress has been filled correctly on the actors HRM card, still this message appears.

Solution: check the division [HRM / Setup / Divisions] and see Adress section. Did you link the division to an account (most likely an account representing this division) and has an e-mail adress been filled on that accountcard. It should be visible here.
