Overview

Use Remark Entry to create and manage remarks. You can add remarks to one or more documents. You can also select the dates for which the remarks appear on documents. For more information on remarks, see Remarks.

If you have permission to add standard remarks, you can also view, edit, and delete applicable standard remarks in Remark Entry. However, if you edit a standard remark, it is changed to a manual remark for the record. If you delete a standard remark, it is only deleted for the specific record, and will still be used for other records.

Example A customer standard remark is created for order acknowledgments. You delete it for a specific order. The remark is still used for other orders.
