It’s a multi line text input. Used instead of adding comments to the line area. Typically used to add more context to the invoice. You might have something saved offline which you paste in on each invoice or you free type something. It does not have any ability to grab default text from anywhere else.

Josh,

NAV added the Work Description field to all User to enter a long description related to the document over an above the Line Types and related Description. To me the Work Description is one place to enter a common description or information related to the entire document vs. entering multiple line comments or extended text.

I will say I have very few customers utilizing it.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,

Steve
