| We would love to have a 4000 characters collapsible notes box above the received
orders... A Virtual "whiteboard"
This box would allow me to communicate with my staff on things not specific to
orders when I'm away. For Example...
Daily tasks
Goals/Achievements
Orders with outstanding issues
This is something super simple an I know any store with a staff would benefit.

Now we are showing our age... we have an actual whiteboard which we post ourselves
notes on using messy old marker pens  I can see the usefulness of your idea
though I'm not sure why it needs to be in BL really.

| If you're on vacation is a good example and unable to use a traditional whiteboard
(which we do have)... Instead of having to constantly text and call me asking
me what'i want them to do next or how to handle a certain situation... I
could answer 90% of their questions prior to them asking. Another example I
came across this morning is I had 2 emails regarding orders not make it into
the bricklink messages and they came after normal business hours... I wanted
to alert them without texting my manager at 4am her time.

You could use something like trello.com. Not ideal to use a separate site but
works in the mean time.

Can't you use the remarks field on the orders received page?

Voted yes, cause we think it is a good idea, however we do this by using Android
tablets, pdf's of the orders and a 'notes app' on the tablet. Notes
can be order specific, staff specific or global. That works for us. No whiteboards
here

Voted yes!
Order remarks are good, but if you get a lot of orders, those notes just follow
the order and pretty soon are on page 2 or 3 or 5!
