Cause

The Sales Order Excel template does not allow the addition of any XML fields in order to create Sales Order Documents.

Therefore, when a Sales Order Excel template is uploaded in the system with an XML field customized in the template, the error message "Corrupt Template; contact your administrator" is triggered.

Resolution

This is a standard behavior.

In case you would like have more options regarding the possible information to be maintained in each field for the creation of the Sales Order Document in the system, we kindly recommend to use the Migration Tool for the creation of Sales Order documents.
