   • In the Source field, select the field in the source Incident table that contains the information to be copied to the field in the article template target table.

11. On the Advanced field Mapping tab, paste in the following code.

    (function (source,target) {
        // Get the first comments from incident and use it as Issue description for article
        var notes = source.comments.getJournalEntry(-1);
        var entries = notes.split("\n\n");
        var comment = "";
        if(entries[entries.length-2]){
            comment = entries[entries.length-2];
            var part = comment.toString().indexOf(")");
            if(part != -1){
    comment = comment.toString().substring(part+2).replaceAll("\r\n","<br/>");
        }
        }if(comment)
            target.kb_issue = comment;
    })(source,target);

    The first comment on an incident is mapped to the Issue Description field in the knowledge article.

    주:

    If the same source or target field is configured in both the basic and advanced field mappings, the advanced field mapping overrides the basic field mapping.

    If the fields configured in the basic and advanced field mapping are different, the field configurations in the advanced field mapping are appended to the field configurations in the basic field mapping.
