Using work number in a layout

I am starting to get my head round layouts, added by the excellent Scoring Express Theatre and Studio templates.

The problem I need to solve is probably very straightforward. In the Project Info window, I’ve numbered songs, underscores, playoffs, and lead-ins using the Work Number field, following a common musical theatre convention… for example: 3 Song Title; 3A Playoff Title; 3B Lead-in Title; 4 Song Title, etc.

This numbering appears correctly in the full score. However, in my vocal layouts, a different token seems to be in use, one that reflects the sequential numbering of the flows instead.

Where can I find and edit the templates for each layout so that I can ensure the Work Number token is used consistently?

Check which page template set is chosen for the layout in Layout Options. Once you know that, go to Engrave mode and edit the page template:
