Create an article
You can create a draft of an article on the Assignment. You can then easily see a preview of the article and the reporter has already a draft to work on.
If you have choosen "text" as the type of the Assignment you can directly create a draft of an article. There are two ways of doing it. You can click in the checkbox Auto create article (1). If you do so the draft will automatically be created and you see it in the article list at the bottom of the Assignment card. If the checkbox is not selected, or if you want to make more articles than one, you click on Add article (2).
TIP One tip is to add metadata ( as Topic and Category in the screenshot below) on the Assignment. Doing so this information follows to the Article automatically. If you had done this on the Planning already, the Assignment automatically will have this information.
The article will get the same unit as the one you are logged in as by default.
When you have created an article you need to save the assignment before anyone will be able to work with the article. That is because the article is only saved when the assignment is saved. If anyone try to work with the article before the assignment is saved correctly, the user will get an error message that the article does not exist.
When the draft of the article has been created, the reporter can start to work by open the article from the Assignment. Open the article can be done in three ways:
Clicking on the icon to the left of the article namn.
Dubbel clicking on the name of the article
Click once on the name of the article. A preview is now opened and there is a button called Open in Writer.
