Notes Table
The Notes table displays the notes associated with a part or part structure.
If a part has a structural relationship with lower-level parts, those parts appear in the Notes table in the order in which they were added. You can add notes to any part in the table.
When you add notes to lower-level parts, those notes do not appear in the
Notes table for that particular part. If you want the note to also be viewable from the information page of that lower-level part, you must add it separately. For more information, see
Viewing the Notes for a BOM.
