Sharing Knowledge Base articles across multiple departments
It would be useful to share some Knowledge Base articles across multiple departments where they are applicable, rather than having to go into other departments to find the article you're looking for.

Reception does not have access to the support desk, so cannot see articles created in the Support KB. Perhaps you could install
