AccountManager Notes

Notes can be used to store information relative to an Account or Contact.  They are visible in Account or Contact views, under the associated Account or Contact, or in the Linked Documents area of an Opportunity Profile (if linked to an opportunity).  They should usually only be used to store general information that is not time-sensitive or covered in other areas of Account or Contact profiles.  Examples of uses for Notes are to store shipping account numbers, contract information, procedural information, driving directions, etc.

Creating Notes

1. Open the AccountManager database, and go to any Accounts or Contacts view. 

2. Select the Account or Contact you wish to create a Note for, and click the “Note” button in the action bar.  A Note document will open, pre-populated with the phone and address information of the contact or account.

3. Fill in the basic information, and add any necessary attachments.

4. “Save” and “Close” the document.  It will now be visible under that contact or account in the views.
