Overview

The notes section allows you to create notes against almost any object in the system. For example, if you require a pop up reminder to appear when creating a sales order for a specific customer.

You can make the notes display on the screen on reports using the various tick boxes on the notes.

When notes are added they can be viewed as a source transaction as well as in Notes in the Navigation Panel.

  1. In the navigation panel, double-click Notes, then click Notes.

  2. All notes that that have been added in the will be visible

A list of notes will appear in date order. You can search for the one your after by typing in a date in the search field. Along side each note will appear the source details the Notes came from.

You can also highlight a Note and click on Show Source to see in detail the origin of the Note.
