How to add Kb Link to the incident worknotes while attaching KB to the incident.

Hi Team,

I have a requirement,

When attaching a KB article to an incident (using the context search in the middle of the incident form), the link text should be copied to the work_notes and not the comments field.

Remarks: Agents sometimes use the attach kb link meant to go into work notes but goes into comments instead. Then the end user will get a notification with a link they do not have sufficient permissions to view causing more problems.

PLease find the below screen shot, in the below screen shot 

existing functionality: As soon as user clicks on the "ATTACH" links the text links is getting added to Additional comments

Require Functionality: As soon as user clicks on the "Attach" links the text links should get attached to the work notes not to the additional commets.

Some one help me here?

Hi,

you will have to make a configuration change

Specify which field to add a note to when you attach a knowledge article to a record. By default, a link of the knowledge article is added to the Additional comments (Customer visible) field. You can specify the other field based on the table.

Refer link below on steps

Hi Ankur,

 

Though the knowledge property added work_notes, still it is getting attached to the additional comments.

Hi,

the link I shared talks about configuration change

Did you go through that and follow the steps?
