This should be implemented as a modal text box triggered by the Redraft or Resubmit buttons or a Notes button on the Order edit form. Notes should be stored in the notes table and displayed at the bottom of the order form. System generated audit information is also stored in the notes table.

Questions

1. Are there situations where notes need to be printed on the purchase order for the vendor's information? Vendor notes would usually be included in the line item. We may need the ability to add a notes line to an order without a cost in case there is not enough room to include the full description of the goods but this is not essential in version 1.
2. If so, do we need two fields or a flag to say whether they're printed or not? No. Any information for the vendor can be included in the line description or attached to the purchase order in other ways. The notes required here are purely for internal correspondence between staff, managers and accounts and I don't currently see the need for them to be printed on the purchase order.
