  • 1.  Note Fields

    Posted 06-22-2020 21:12
    General preference on notes fields?  Multi line text with logging vs a related table?  I currently have notes attached to projects and opportunities as a multi line text field with logging on.  Works fine.  I have a few users that requested some features with quick add buttons on mobile etc. so if they get a phone call related to a project they can quickly log notes.  I think the best way to do that would be a formula api button going to create a new related record on a separate notes table.

    Before I go through all of the trouble of updating just curious what people prefer for notes fields.  Related tables or a logging multi line text field (or rich text field of course)

    Thanks!

    My preference is a child table as a regular multiline text field. I feel it's a bit unfair to users not to let them edit and correct typos or re-phrase.
