The Notes feature is available throughout aACE. Notes can be entered for a record or a line item, so they are useful for capturing specific details. In some cases, notes entered in one record will also be displayed on related records (ex: a note entered on a line item at the Order screen will carry over to that line item in the related invoice and shipment records).

- Save the note by clicking outside the pop-up window or clicking on the X icon in the top-right corner.
