Hi,

 

We have a requirement that whenever we open create new knowledge article there are some fields visible so our requirement is to map all those fields to a record producer and replace that form layout with that record producer, is it is possible..

 

Thanks,

Create new variables

Need to check the "Map to field" and field to be mapped in variable created as below

We cannot replace the form layout with record producer but we can create a new left navigation module to redirect to record producer.

Yes you can map every field, just make sure that the variable choice list field values match the choices values of fields.

 

Also if you are not able to cater any field through mapping you always have an option to script in record producer using :

 

current.field_name=producer.variable_name;

Number will not auto populate on record producer, it will be generated when kb is created, you don't need number variable here.

Also if your sys_id is correct the link should work

@Asish17 you need to create categories in kb_category table, post that it will be visible in the RP and on selecting in RP it will be mapped to category field on RP.
