Adding Notes to a Request

Print Friendly and PDF Follow

You can add unlimited notes to the Request form, Activity form, and User Information form in the Aeon Desktop Client. A large dialog box allows for unlimited characters and multiple lines of text. You can manually add a field to your email templates to include the last note from the Request form in your emails.

Notes can also be added to the user record in the Aeon Web Client. For details, see Working With User Records in the Client. Please note that notes cannot be added to request and activity records using the web client at this time.
