Project Notes
It is good practice to add notes to an activity, either at Tender Stage or during the Contract. These notes can be as a reminder to the Planner of how the duration was derived at, or to help document progress of a task (e.g. delayed due to weather).
Notes can be printed out as part of the Activity Table, or simply searched on.
Whereas there is a limitation on the length of some text fields, the Notes can be up to 64 kB of text.
Add a note to a task
- Go to Task toolbar > Edit Task > Notes tab.
or… - Double-Left click the mouse button when the cursor is over the row of the desired task.
or… - Press Shift-F2 when the desired task is selected in the activity table.
- In the Activity Details dialog, select the Notes tab.
- Fill the notes into the edit box.
- Press OK to accept the changes.
Display Notes on Activity Table
Notes can be printed ‘word-wrapped’ for As-built reports.
Before printing, go to Print Bar Chart – Print tab, and un-check the ‘Print Bar Chart’
This will only print the selected Activity Table, and if required the Notes will wrap around.
