Field Layer Notes
Field Layer Notes are up-to-date text information about specific layers of a field
within JDOffice. Notes are attached to the layer that is highlighted in the Layers
chooser - this layer may be different from the layer that the user is viewing on
the field map. Once written, they can be revised or deleted at any time. They
can also be printed as a summary report per field. Refer to “Field Layer Notes”
on page 230.
To assist you with record-keeping, the current date will automatically appear in
the Layer Notes window when you begin to type. If you do not want it to appear
on a specific note, highlight it and type over it. If you do not want the date to
ever appear on your notes, uncheck Automatically add today's date on
Field Notes on the Dates Preferences tab. Any notes written prior to
unchecking this option will still have the date in them.
Because notes are created layer-specific, they will only print on their
corresponding layer’s map according to the options set on the Printer
Preferences tab. The exception to this rule is that notes can be written for soil
type maps, but not print on the soil type field map. If you are printing two or
more layers at one time, a list of the layers which comprise the map will print
instead of the histogram or notes.
Notes can also be written on the Field History Observation screen.
Note: The Field Layer Notes report will list all notes (per chosen
year) written for any field layer within a farm. If you ever have a
problem locating a note that you remember writing for a field, the
Notes report will assist you in locating the correct layer that the
note was attached to.

1. Click Layers .
2. Select View for the layer you want to add a note to.
• The layer also must be highlighted.
3. Click Layer Notes .
4. Type the note in the text box.
