E-mail Notifications for Knowledge Record Actions

In the Knowledge Management module, for each action on a Knowledge Record, such as Knowledge Record Creation, Authorization, Approval, Publishing, Refer Back, Status Change, and Update, notification e-mails are sent.

These notification e-mails are sent based on the Notification Templates configured on the NOTIFICATION TEMPLATE page (Admin > Advanced > Notifications > Notification Template > Select a Tenant and Module as Knowledge Management).

The e-mail notifications are stored in the Queue Table and sent to the respective users when Send Mails For Summit job is executed.

Creating Knowledge Records With No Selected Workgroup

To create a Knowledge Record without selecting any Workgroup, see Adding Knowledge Records. Follow all the steps. Ensure that no Workgroup is selected.

Figure: NEW KNOWLEDGE RECORD page

See example

The following example explains to whom the notification e-mails are triggered when a KR, with no Workgroup defined, is published or moved to the Maintenance status:

Scenario

Let's consider a Department (Support) has two Workgroups: Application Support and CRM Support.

Workgroup Application Support has two Analysts, James and David.
Workgroup CRM Support has one Analyst, Charles.

See the following illustration:

E-mail Notifications

The e-mail notifications are sent as per69272111. Since, no Workgoup is selected for the Knowledge Record, when the Knowledge Record is published or moved to Maintenance status, all the Analysts, in this case, James, David, and Charles receive the e-mail notifications.
