Case Notes
Case notes record communications, internal comments, and case history on the Notes tab of case detail.
View notes

Note labels
Higbee org members may tag notes with labels from the EAV catalog for categorization (e.g., client contact, vendor update).
- When creating or editing, open the labels selector.
- Choose one or more labels.
- Save the note.
Best practices
- Include date-relevant context (who you spoke with, what was agreed).
- Use labels consistently so teammates can filter notes later.
- Avoid storing sensitive credentials in notes; use approved secure channels.
Permissions
All users with case access can typically view notes. Create/edit/delete permissions may vary by role and vendor policy.
