{{UnderConstructionAnnotation Mode}} __notoc__ ==Feature Overview== Revision Annotations is feature that allows you to add annotations at the field level and allow edits to be made to specific fields while keeping the rest of the record locked. Flexible Status based security allows you to configure role-based permissions to allow different users the ability to add annotations to fields while others the ability to edit the field value. ==Illustrated==[[Image:Annotation_2.png|link=|500px]][[Image:Spacer.png|link=]] [[Image:Annotation_1a.png|link=|700px]] ''Image 1. the Annotation Tab illustrated (above).''<br />''Image 2. Example annotations displayed on the Annotation Tab (above)''<br /> ==Configuring Field Revision Annotations== The first step in configuring the Field Revision Annotation is to create an Annotation Type and permission it based on Roles.
