Informational Notes

 

Informational notes are messages passed between users and company personnel, most notably between local operations members, crew, and drivers, and may be included in registration uploads for Special Services orders.  Informational notes differ from simple notes in that data of the last change is saved along with the text change.  Attributes of an informational note are as follows:

    Timestamp

    User-stamp

    No restrictions to add, edit, or delete note content

    Internal and external usage

 

The following table lists and describes the available informational notes.
