You can edit and comment on any note associated with a data source or attribute. You can edit a note's class, subclass, business impact, project impact, and the note text. You cannot edit the note's subject.

You and others with access can add comments in the Note History section. Comments are visible to team members to help track progress, answer questions, and clarify data quality goals. Note History also includes a log of all edits made to the note, and shows details about users who made the change and the time and date the changes were made. Comments and changes are added to the top of the Note History thread and display in ascending order.

Note: If you edit a note that includes a customized (configured by the Discovery Center administrator) or Time Series class, you can change the class and subclass to use a default class, but you cannot edit a class to use a Time Series class or a different custom class. For more information, see Note Classes and Subclasses.
