Hi. I have a requirement to display the Document ID column value in a Document Template that is used across different site collections in SharePoint Online. The Document ID service is enabled for all site collections. If I add the Quick Part in Word for the Document ID on the template, it only works for document created from the template in that Site Collection, however I need it to work in multiple collections.
I currently have other custom SharePoint properties working by adding them to a new content type in the content type hub, however I can't seem to add Document ID to this content type.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Thanks for the reply Juan. I'm surprised this is not a common problem. Do you know of a solution where a word template can have a document ID that works across collections? It would be a nightmare for us to have to create unique templates for every site.
