Article life cycle


Every article has a life cycle. At the beginning of its life cycle, the article enters the pre-publish review and approval process. If approved, the article is published. Published articles can be reviewed and retired from use, as required. Retired articles continue to reside in the knowledge base, and although they are not visible to end users, knowledge users can search for them. However, you also have the option of making the retired articles non-searchable. For more information, see After-publishing-an-article.
