Knowledge Custom Rules

A custom rule can set the requirement for Approval whenever a drafted Article needs publishing. In other words, once an Article enters the draft mode, it can be published only when the Approval status is either Pre-Approved or Approved.

To view the Knowledge Custom Rules page, navigate to Admin > Knowledge Management > Knowledge Custom Rules.
