The Revised by field is managed by the system and gets set automatically from a script include when a new version is created for an article.  It is not intended to be updated in any other way.

 

Please mark as correct/helpful if this answered your question.

Is the Revised by field is getting updated for only major versions or it does for minor versions also?

Does the field Revised by have any dependency on the author of the article?

The Recall button will be visible to the author only if the author and revised by are same. Is this true?
