Once created, a File Note can be used to keep historical records of all correspondence, meetings and conversations with contacts on any given subject. File Notes allow you to quickly record important details and capture the times and dates for later use. When used fully, each File Note will become a complete record of all dealings on a subject, complete with dates and times.
