Note Sharing Depends on Parts ADVISOR Configuration

If you are using the Web version of the EPC, or if you have installed the DVD version on a client/server system, your user notes are shared between workstations at your dealership. If you have installed the DVD version on standalone systems, each system maintains its own notes.

Notes are not synchronized between the Web version of the EPC and the DVD version.
