Who is this article for?

Users who want to add Additional Notes to their items.

Risk_Update/Links/Owners Edit/Target Edit/Admin (+ Complex) permissions are required to interact with Additional Notes once they have been created.

Additional Notes works in a similar way to regular Notes. Main difference is that regular Notes combine input from First Tab and Assessment pages, while Additional Notes notes serve as separate section for Users that prefer to separate input from the two sections.
