Internal Comments for Document Control Modules

It would be very helpful for our team/company to be able to able to make internal comments on RFIs, Submittals, Action Items etc. that is not visible to the Architect, Owner, Subcontractors etc.

    By not having this feature we are having to "manage" all Submittals, RFIs and more in Excel as we need to add notes on a Submittal throughout its approval and can't have everyone on the Submittal seeing these. The only way to add notes on a Submittal is to comment, but everyone gets a notification and sees them.

    It should be like what's on a Daily Report where you can click on Notes, it time stamps it with a user name and a memo field. You can add multiple. That section should be secured by Security Role so we can hide it from all of our external roles. This would not send notifications.

    Ability to enter and view internal comments will be controlled by security role settings. Business impact: Ability to streamline internal comments while keeping all correspondence within the system and make part of the permanent record. Users of the system have identified this as a significant impediment to system adoption. This enhancement would also allow internal comments to be suppressed on reports.
