System Note
System Notes only. For information about System Notes v2, see System Notes v2 Overview.
System notes track changes made to a record and to general configuration settings that have a financial impact. A system note for a change on a record captures the date when the change was made, who made the change, the role of the user who made the change, the type of change, and the old and new value in the record. System notes are logged on custom records as well as standard records. Anyone with view access to a record can view the system notes for that record. When searching system notes, you can search for certain records, use advanced search filters, create a saved search, or export the information for additional analysis.
For help working with this record in the UI, see System Notes Overview and Searching System Notes.
