Function documentationFrequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

 

FAQ are a list of frequently asked questions to a problem and a given product. For example, if your product is a PC hard drive, and your problem is hard drive crashes, your FAQ might be How to restore a PC hard drive after a crash. FAQ can provide condensed descriptions of solutions, and save time because you can browse through the FAQ instead of searching for solutions.

Prerequisites

Create and release the problems that you want to link your FAQ to.

Activities

Caution Caution

When knowledge administrators maintain FAQ, they can view the problem that each FAQ is linked to, irrespective of the knowledge administrator's information security profile. This is because information security is designed to restrict access to problem records only in searches. For more details, see Information Security.
