Formatting Notes as Text only
Notes on the web screens can only display text.
On the Sage 300 desktop screens, you can include pictures in Notes and format the Notes by copying and pasting from Microsoft Word.
Such content is not displayed on the web screens. The Web Tray only displays the text version of the notes.
If you are using both Sage 300 desktop and web screens, it is recommended to include only text in the Notes.
If you include formatting or pictures in a Note on the desktop and edit the note on the Web Tray, the formatting or picture will be removed from the note.
If you need to link pictures to records in Sage 300, it is recommended to use Document Management Link.
