You can display the Notes page using the Notes item on the toolbar in the following pages:

  • Update Project Budget - Administrator page - select a record in the worksheet, and then click the toolbar item.

  • Add Ledger Entry page - click the toolbar item while adding an account.

  • Details page - click the toolbar item while updating an existing account.
