There's the 'comment' field on entering General Journal entries and I can't find it anywhere.
 
Please tell me the table/field ID
 
Trying to figure out how I can use this.

    That Comment field you see in the General Journal page in your screenshot (Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central) is not part of the main Gen. Journal Line table directly, which is why you don’t see it in the table fields list or extension tables right away.
    Underlying table details: 

    Table Name: Gen. Journal Line
    Table ID: 81
    Field Name (linked): Comment is not a direct field — it’s a linked feature through the Comment Line table.
    Related Table: Comment Line
    Related Table ID: 97
    Relation Field:
    Table Name = 'Gen. Journal Line'
    No. = Document No. from the journal line

    Hi, hope the following helps.

    Thanks.
