I am a little newbie to communication template:  Looking for a way to includes all worklogs with "viewable checked" to a communication template. 

My unsuccessful attempts was able to only add the latest worklog entry.

As far as I am aware, out-of-the-box Maximo doesn't allow for enumeration of child records w/in communication templates (i.e. there's not a way provided to list all work log entries, for example).

We have worked around this using the following approach:

1) make up some short of placeholder like #WORKLOG# and add that to the message of your communication template.

2) add an automation script that runs whenever the message body is updated--this script should look for #WORKLOG#.

3) if that placeholder is found, the script opens the appropriate MBO set and either builds a list or a table of work log entries and then replaces the placeholder #WORKLOG# with the HTML (list, table, etc).

I've attached our script--I am definitely on the amateur side of scripting, and so I'm sure others could provide insights about how to do this better...but this approach has worked for us!
