Custom Notes and Functionality

I have 2 questions that are related: 1) Is there a way to create custom notes so they show up in the Notes tab of proposals, orders, etc? I am currently using version 8.0.0. Back in version 3.6, someone modified the core code to use custom note fields and I’m trying to get back to the core system. So, I’d like to use the attributes in the module configuration, but have them show up in the notes tab instead of the card tab. Is that possible?

  1. When a user selects the field to edit, is there a way to default the text to include the current data/time and the user who is modifying the note? For example:

– 10/21/2019 04:03 PM John Smith –
Here are my notes. The info above is who I am and when I modified the field.

Hello,

On the note tab you can allready define notes, so why not using it ?

For your question 2 : https://www.dolistore.com/en/modules/495-Advanced-Notes.html

Hi,
For your 2nd question you can try to set the viriable “MAIN_AUTO_TIMESTAMP_IN_PRIVATE_NOTES” to 1 in your other setup settings.

When I define a note, it only shows up on the “card” tab, not the “notes” tab. My question is, how to I get it on the “Notes” tab also?

I tried setting this variable and it does not date/time stamp my notes. I am in version 8.0.0, is this available in this version?

Hi,
There is no specific version described about this variable. You can take a look at https://wiki.dolibarr.org/index.php/Setup_Other
