Share information through knowledge articles
When technicians in the field work on assigned jobs, they need access to relevant information to solve the problems they encounter.
Knowledge management in Dynamics 365 Field Service associates relevant knowledge articles with work orders, incidents, products, and customer assets.
Access to knowledge articles help improve the fix rate and guide technicians through procedures.

Write a knowledge article to share information with technicians.
For more information on knowledge articles, see:

In Field Service, go to Settings > Knowledge management > Knowledge articles and select New or New From Template.
Add text, pictures, and videos to the knowledge article.

Link knowledge articles to related entities
Create relationships between knowledge articles and other records, like incident types, products, or customer assets. When any of these records are added to a work order, the system automatically links the related knowledge articles.
In Field Service, go to Settings > Knowledge management > Knowledge articles.
Select an article. On the Summary tab, in the Related Information section, select the target entity for the relationship.
Select the vertical ellipsis ⋮ and choose Add Existing Customer Asset.

You can also link knowledge articles without configured relationship to incidents, assets, or products. On a target record, go to the Linked Articles tab and select New Linked Article.
