Discover how to add a note to a serial title or issue in WorldShare Acquisitions.

You can add notes to items in WorldShare Acquisitions. When a note is added to an item, the system records the author of the note and the date and time the note was saved. You also have the option to have order item notes appear as a pop-up message when you receive and/or pay for the item. If the order item has an Acquisitions Type of Subscription, you also can attach the note to only the order item or the order item and all prior and subsequent renewals. Additionally, invoice item notes can appear as a pop-up message when you pay for the item.

 Note: Serials title and issue notes include notes for any previously merged records.
