In this short blog post we want to highlight that Knowledge Base Articles (KBA) are now also available for SAP Business One.
KBAs help explaining system behaviour, answer commonly asked how-to questions and explain error messages and how to avoid them.
Advantages
You cannot only find them in the
support launchpad, but also using an internet search engine such as google.
You want to read the KBA in another language than English? No problem. KBAs are dynamically machine translated into the following languages:
- 日本語 (Japanese)
- Português (Portuguese)
- Español (Spanish)
- 中文 (Chinese)
- Français (French)
- Italiano (Italian)
- Русский (Russian)
- 한국어 (Korean)
- Deutsch (German)
When using machine translation, please note that you will not be able to see the changes made to the the KBA, that is only possible when viewing it in English.
