Notes can be added to resources when you need to record additional information on the resource. Resource notes can be used for internal or external use and only appear on the service order item when the item is added to an order.
Resource notes will not copy over to the price list item if the resource has already been added to a price list. You will need to add the note to the price list item if this needs to be displayed on an external facing application such as the Exhibitor Service Center (ESC).
To add a note to a resource:
- From the Main Menu, search and select Resources. The Resources page opens.
- Select the resource for the note.
- Right-click and select Add > Add Note. The Add Note window opens.
- Enter the necessary information for the note. See Notes for information on each available field.
- Click OK.

How can I add a note to a Resource but suppress it from printing on any client facing documents?
I set the Sensitivity to Internal which I thought would do the trick however the note is printing on the License Agreement.
Help?
Thanks,
Kathy

Hi Kathy,
You are correct that client facing reports (reports set to External for Scope on the Report Master) won't print notes set to Internal or would give you a prompt so you could choose what Sensitivity you want to print. The report you reference, License Agreement, isn't a standard report in our system so it could be that a standard report has been renamed or you are using a custom report.
If you go to the Report Master from the Main Menu, you can search for this report and show the Scope column to see if it's set to External and show the Origin column to see if it's set to Standard or Custom.
If the report has an Origin of Standard and Scope of Internal, then the Internal notes will display. If the report has an Origin of Custom, then you can either work with someone who is familiar with Crystal at your organization to adjust the report to not show these notes or you can reach out to our team and we can help update the report to not show Internal notes.
Thanks,

If you edit a note on a resource AFTER it is already on the price list, does the price list note automatically update?

Hi Diana,
Notes are added to price list items from the resource only when a resource item is added to the price list. Price list item notes are not automatically updated when the note on the resource item is changed.

Hi,
If you add a new note in the resource, is there way to see it on the price list items?
Some resources are in multiple price lists, so it would be handy if we can add a note once for multiple price lists.
Kind regards,
Matthias

Hi Matthias,
The behavior is the same for new notes. Notes are only added to price list items as part of the original addition of the resource item to the price list.
I can relate to the level of effort involved when managing multiple price lists. Consider adding an enhancement request on this issue. You can follow these instructions if you are not familiar with the process.
Adding the request to a Product Ideas forum allows other users to endorse your enhancement request and share their own use-cases in support of enhancing the software. Our developers take these into account when prioritizing their development efforts.
Regards,
Sam
