What is a general notes template?

Summary

Throughout Platinum there are several sections where you can add General Notes to a record, e.g., Stock Codes; Customers and Suppliers; Vehicles; Order Items. These notes can be used in various ways - they can be used on reports and other print-outs; they can be used for holding extra information of a more confidential nature.
