Knowledge Articles from HR Knowledge Base are being set to retired without clicking Retire UI Action

Hi Team,

 

There is a weird scenario which i came across recently.

 

Knowledge Articles from HR Knowledge Base are instantly getting retired without clicking on Retire UI Action when any change is made on knowledge article when it's in published state.

 

Scenario 1: When i tried to extend the validity of a knowledge article using custom UI Action, the validity got extended but the workflow state was

set to retired without triggering any approval.

 

Scenario 2: When i tried to update the knowledge article author from list view using list context menu, the author got updated but workflow state was set to retired without triggering any approval.

 

What could be the possible reasons for such behaviour. Could someone please suggest.

 

Thanks!

What is the 'valid to' date on the articles?  I am wondering if the 'valid to' is being set to a date in the past, like the first day of 2025.  

@d_cammack 

 

In most of the cases valid to is in future like below.

 

Old Valid to - 10 Feb 2025

 

After clicking custom UI Action which extends the valid to by a year

 

New Valid to - 09 Feb 2026
