Recording Customer Contact History & Notes

Introduction

There will be occasions when you want to record notes about your sales quote. These notes can be concerning conversations with a customer on the phone, copy & paste the content of an email sent or received about the sales deal you are working on, or maybe just something you want to remember about the sales quote you are working on.

Navigate to the Sales Quote Dashboard (as shown below).  Then locate the sales quote you would like to record notes.
