Knowledgebase Overview

Knowledge Base Overview

Whether you use the Knowledge Base is entirely optional and it has been included in Easify as it is a handy way to store information relating to your business.

You can organise the information you store here by creating your own Knowledge Base categories and articles, and assigning keywords to your articles so that they can be easily searched for.

The kind of information you can store here is only limited by your imagination, but some examples to get you started are things like:

  • Your Company Handbook
  • Company Procedures
  • Supplier Login Information
  • Company Details (for instance a lot of people can never remember their company VAT number or registration number)
  • Anything else you can think of that would be handy to be able to look up

So if you fill the Knowledge Base with handy company info, and it will be available instantly from any PC on which you have Easify installed.

You can launch the Knowledge Base either via the large buttons in the bottom left of the Easify Pro Main Window:

or by clicking Help->Knowledge Base->View Knowledge Base on the Easify Pro main menu:

The main Knowledge Base view allows you to search for articles, view and print them, as well as manage and edit them.

To the left of the Knowledge Base is a list of all the categories you have created for your Knowledge Base articles, expanding the categories will display the articles within them.

The selected article is displayed in the right hand pane of the Knowledge Base.

Across the top is a toolbar with various buttons that allow you to create, edit, print and search articles.
