Creating a Note
You can create a new note in the following locations:
Notes you create here are not associated with a particular part, but can provide general information, or later be added to one or more parts.
Notes you create here can either be associated to the part on whose page the table is located, or with a structural relationship to a lower-level part in an assembly. For more information, see Viewing the Notes for a BOM.
To create and add a note to a part, you must have permission to check out the part. If actions are still unavailable to you, verify the status of the part. If it is checked out by another user, you cannot add a note. For more information, see Understanding Data Accessibility.
