Adding Knowledge Base Owners as Reviewers

Adding Knowledge Base Owners as Reviewers

Every article published for your customers should be thoroughly vetted to make sure that it is well organized, short but sweet, and provide clear, numbered steps written in a user-friendly tone. You can bring in people who can add their experience and insights into the articles and get the most out of them. It also emphasizes the fact that every help desk should have one or more Directly Responsible Individuals (DRIs) who will review the content that is put out for the external world. These individuals are called Reviewers in Zoho Desk.

You can assign Reviewers to scrutinize the articles before they are published. Usually, your agents will draft and send their articles for review. The reviewers will receive an email notification with a link to the article. They can then review and publish the article to the KBase.

  1. Click the Knowledge Base (KB) module.
