Log entries are your internal paper trail because every entry is stored and listed separately \u2014 and they cannot be edited nor deleted. Entries can only be canceled but remain in the log as a canceled entry.<\/p>\n<h4>Notes Logs are included in:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Entities (Firms, Contacts, and Locations)<\/li>\n<li>Orders<\/li>\n<li>Order Parties<\/li>\n<li>Parts<\/li>\n<li>Invoices<\/li>\n<li>Collections<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Notes Logs are private<\/h2>\n<p>Notes Logs are for internal use only, and log notes are not published on MR Connect or in any correspondence with clients. Notes to be shared with clients \u2014 or internal notes that require high visibility such as information the production or billing staff need to know about a particular order \u2014 should be entered in other fields in MR9 dedicated to those purposes. However only notes in Notes Logs are unalterable.<\/p>\n<p>You can set a date and time on any note in a Notes Log to have the system send you or another staff member a reminder about the note.<\/p>\n<p><strong>TL;DR: Notes Logs contain notes related to the record in which they are entered by a user or the system and are unalterable.
