Notes can include summaries of meetings, phone calls, research results, and so on, that can be used as historic records for audits, compliance or decision making. A note can be attached to one or more entities or documents. For example, a meeting summary note for a fund investment might be linked to the fund, investment, asset manager/company and the contacts that were present at the time of the meeting.
Important: A note must include at least one link to an entity. If it does not contain at least one link, you will not be able to save the note.
