Working with Notes

Cette page est en cours de traduction. Elle sera mise à jour dès que son contenu sera disponible en français.


In an Essential engagement you can add notes for any workpaper, leadsheet, or report using Engagement View. Each workpaper, leadsheet or report can have up to 100 notes, and each note can have up 100 replies. The icon displays in the Notes column if notes are present for an item. Notes and replies automatically include the user name of the person who created them, as well as a time and date stamp.

If needed, you can select to include a note thread when you roll forward the engagement. Note threads that are selected for roll forward display in the upper right corner.

When you add, edit, or delete notes, the changes are immediately available to other users. They do not need to refresh the page to view your changes.
