Use the Add New Record page

On the Add New Record page:

2. In Add to, for each KB in which you want to add the record:
   1. Check the box in front of the KB name.
   2. Select a status option. Status options: new KB record

5. Click the Create Record button.
   The QuestionPoint response varies:
   • If required fields are missing, it pops up a message that lists the missing fields. Click OK and complete the required fields.
   • If the record was added successfully to the KB, it displays a message that summarizes your action and shows the KB record number assigned to the record.
   • If you have more Add New Record pages to process, it displays the next one.
   • If you completed the last question selected from a question list, it displays the question list.
   • If you completed the last draft record, it displays a message that indicates the draft folder is empty.
   • If you added the record from an individual Full Question, it displays the Full Question.
   • If you added the record from a blank Add New Record page, it displays another blank one.

Notes

Click the Question Detail link to view the Full Question information in a separate window while you work.

Click a KB record number link in the Other records for this Q&A area to view a KB record (if any) already added for the question.

Click the Save Draft button at any time to save a draft of the record without adding it to the KB. QuestionPoint saves and redisplays the draft.
You can:

• Continue to work on the draft
• Go to another Add New Record page in a group of pages and then return to the draft
• Complete the draft later in the Knowledge Base module (Knowledge Base > Add/Edit > My Drafts)

If you save a draft, you must add the record or save the draft again within 14 days. If you do not QuestionPoint deletes the draft after 14 days.
