Q. 
Why are my notes within the PDM module disappearing?
 
Possible scenarios that could cause the notes to ‘disappear’ from the PDM  module.
 
  1. Someone may have updated the routing by removing the WC that had the notes on it.   Even if it is immediately replaced back into the routing before saving the changes, the notes will be lost.
  2. Where could be a case where two users are saving changes on the same product within the PDM module.   First user adds WO instruction notes then saves while second user was just editing the tooling and fixture or adding a separate note, etc. If second user saves then the notes added by the first user may get overwritten or wiped out.
  3. It also could be that a user did go into the PDM and accidently removed the notes manually.
  4. Also keep in mind that if you are using the copy feature the notes on the existing routing will be removed and/or replaced with the new routing notes.
