Quantum VS Help: File Maintenance |
The Notes tab of the Supplier record shows Notes saved for a Supplier. It is also used to create, edit and delete Supplier Notes.
There are various reasons for using Supplier Notes:
To record general Supplier information which may be useful in the future (e.g. 'Supplier is setting up new branches in the area').
To create popup text boxes which appear automatically when the Supplier is added to a purchasing/sales document, providing timely information for staff dealing directly with the Supplier. There is the further option to make the Popup a 'one shot' (displayed once only).
