Introduction to Note Formats

A Note Format defines the output content, layout, and format of the Notes text function. You can create and maintain Note Formats in the Note Manager and can use Note Formats across multiple reports.

In a Note Format, you can:

  • Add Sections (rows) with text functions to display Note information and metadata above the note content.

  • Define the text formatting applied to each function.

  • Reorder and move Sections.

  • Define indention levels for the output and at the Section level.

Create a Note Format in the Note Format Manager, which is Accessible via the Note Manager. See Accessing the Note Format Manager.
