We are excited to announce a new enhancement for Feedback and Exception Management - Comments.
With Comments, team communication is taken to a whole new level. It provides a way for team members to share and view comments on work orders, which helps to ensure everyone is on the same page. The new feature allows you to individually or bulk add comments, see the comment history for the item, and who commented. This article will provide more information on how to use the Comments feature to streamline your team's communication and collaboration.
