A note can be used, as means of passing on information to someone who will process the object later. Another area of use is to make personal notes and comments for internal reference only.
The major difference between notes and document text is that notes are not getting printed. However, the header notes and notes for the reserved lines, entered using the Material Requisition window will be printed on the Pick List.
A note can consist of up to 2000 characters.
You can link the note to the header or to each line separately. However, in some documents you can link a note only to the header and in others, only to the lines.
