This post is part of a series on Implementing Enhanced Notes from ISC Software Solutions.

Over the last few posts, I’ve been taking a look at the Enhanced Notes Microsoft Dynamics GP add-on from ISC Software. This module replaces the standard Notes one and gives the ability to record discrete notes against any record or window.

A number of clients use the standard notes, manually adding user, date and time to the comments with the newest a the top, but this gives you a potentially very long monolithic notes record.

It’s an easy add-on to install and configure and, with a free trial, there is no cost to giving the module a try in the Fabrikam sample company database, other than time.

In this window, I have entered a note as well as selecting a category and subcategory; I am not emailing this or creating a task; I could use the paperclip icon to attach a PDF of the email if required.
