Por Que e Quando Desempenhar Esta Tarefa

The author of a knowledge article, knowledge administrators, and system administrators can recall an article. If an ownership group is assigned to a knowledge article, the ownership group manager and ownership group members can also recall the knowledge article.

If a version of a knowledge article is in the Review state, you can recall only the corresponding version to make additional changes. Recalling the article results in a minor version increment.

For more information, see Use the Office 365 app launcher.
In the New section, click New blank document, or open any existing Microsoft Word document.
On the Home tab of the Word document, click the Knowledge icon ().
In the Knowledge Management pane of the Word document, in the Search box, enter the knowledge article title or description.
Click the link to the article in Review state that you want to recall.
On the Knowledge form, click Recall.
