You can enable authors to reuse information in a case by copying case details into an
article template. Use the pre-defined customer service source case table to article template
target table configuration or create custom configurations between the two tables to copy
information from a case to an article.

## Vorbereitungen

* The [Knowledge Management Advanced plugin](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/J90Hkp1E8ZldaR2ecCW8ZQ "Activate the Knowledge Management Advanced plugin (com.snc.knowledge_advanced) to enable advanced features for Knowledge Management.") must be active.
* The [Properties installed with Customer Service Management](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=r_PropInstallWcustServ&version=australia&pubname=australia-customer-service-management&ft:locale=en-US) must be enabled
* The pre-defined KCS article template or a newly created article template must be active.  
  Hinweis:  
  You can do one of the following to create an article from a case:
  * Use the pre-defined Case KCS Article mapping as is or modify the field mappings between the case source table and article template target table.
  * Create a new article template target table and map it to the case source table and customize the field mappings between them. For information on creating article templates, refer to [Create an
    article template](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/CQKdeK6vft1G_DTxtzSB6w "Create new article templates in addition to the pre-defined templates. Add new fields based on how you want to customize and display your content.").
  {#administer-create-article-from-case__ul_kmh_vpd_dcb}
* Knowledge users use the Create Knowledge button in a case form to create an article from a case and must have "can contribute" permission for at least one active knowledge base to create an article from a case. For information on user permissions, see [Knowledge
  Management roles](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/NNQ2aHGRhhiYhG81OhWbOg#r_KnowledgeRoles "Certain roles are required to use Knowledge Management functionality.").

Role required: sn_customerservice.customer_admin or admin

## Warum und wann dieser Vorgang ausgeführt wird

The pre-defined Case KCS Article mapping is stored in the CSM Table Map \[csm_table_map\] table. This configuration has the sn_customerservice_case source case table configured to the kb_template_kcs_article target article template table with the four field mappings pre-configured between the tables. You can customize the existing field mappings or map additional fields between the tables.

## Prozedur

1. In the application filter navigator, type <kbd class="ph userinput">csm_table_map.list</kbd>.
2. Click Case KCS Article.
3. From the Target Table list, use the pre-defined KCS article template table or select the newly created article template table.
4. Map each customer service case field that must be used to create knowledge articles.
   1. In the Basic Field Mapping related list, click New.  
      To map fields, fill in the following fields:{#administer-create-article-from-case__table_h3y_bl2_dcb__entry__2}

      | Field | Instructions |
      |-|-|
      | Source Field | Select the field in the source case table that contains the information to be copied to the field in the article template target table. |
      | Target Field | Select the field in the article template target table to which you need information copied to from the field in the source case table. |
      [Tabelle : 1. Customer service case table to article template target table field mapping]

      {#administer-create-article-from-case__table_h3y_bl2_dcb}
   2. Click Submit.
   3. To map fields using advanced scripts, select the Advanced Field Mapping check box and then map the fields between the source and the target table using advanced scripts in the Advanced Field Mapping tab.  
      Hinweis:  
      If the same source or target field is configured in both the
      basic and advanced field mappings, the advanced field mapping
      overrides the basic field mapping.

      If the fields configured in the basic and advanced field mapping
      are different, the field configurations in the advanced field
      mapping are appended to the field configurations in the basic
      field mapping.
   4. To customize when and how the Create Knowledge button is displayed, use the condition builder in the Condition tab or select Use Advanced Condition check box and configure using advanced scripts.  
      Hinweis:  
      If you change the target table in the Case KCS Article mapping, also update the scripts with the configuration changes for display of this button.
