When writing a note, you have a handful of options to ensure your team's notes are nice and organized.
- Category - A note can belong to a single category. These are often used to log the 'type' of communication that's occurred - e.g. note, call, onsite, etc.
- Tags - Below the note text field is the ability to add any number of additional tags to associate to the note. This is to narrow down even further aside from categorizing your note.

In Vitally, you can view all notes created by your team via a Notes View. Additionally, when on an account's dashboard, the Notes tab there lists just notes for that account.
In both Views, you have the ability to filter notes by all your Note columns - e.g. category, tags, participants, etc - as well as by any of your Account columns.

Q: Can I auto-create a note via a playbook?
A: Not at this time. Since Notes are so unique with unique context it would be difficult to auto-create a note
Q: Who is the task assigned to when I embed a task into a Note?
A: Embedded Tasks will be automatically assigned to the note creator, not the template creator.
Q: What notifications will be triggered when I @ mention someone?
A: We'll send them an in-app, email, and Slack notification (if they have each enabled).
Q: I can't find the note I just created under a User
A: You may have not added a participant when creating the Note. Check the Account or recently created Notes, you can always edit it and add the participant so you can find the note under a specific User.
