You can add an 'Internal Note' to Quotes, the Client's Estimate, Purchase Orders, Bills, Invoices, Variations and Credit Notes - similar to what you can do within Xero i.e. adding a note for your own reference, or for other office users to see. Any Quotes, Client Estimate, Purchase Orders, Bills, Credit Notes, Invoices, Variations and Credit Notes with an Internal Note(s) will display an Internal Note icon to the right of that document's reference number.
NOTE: Internal notes are only visible to Branch Staff
