Contacts - Ability to export/import additional notes
Ability to export and import Notes that are shown in the contact details section as a column in the exported file.
This would allow bulk update and review of notes that have been added across Contacts.

It is irresponsible of Xero not to make this field importable or exportable. We are entering valuable information data, which we can't export in bulk. No field should be added until the feature of import and export is delivered.
At least add a note next to the field advising the user that the data entered there can not be exported.

Absolutely the notes field needs to be added into the export file. There is no other way of extracting any note information added to a customer's profile. This would be incredibly beneficial to our business to utilise information entered into the new notes field. Surely can't be that hard to add this to the export file??

Please add this ability to the note section. The notes should also be time stamped and the name of the user who made the note should be viewable as well.
I have mentioned in another post about how the new note feature is really basic and lacking usability...You can make a note on the contact that's great but what can you do with this???Nothing.
We need to choice to be able to make a note pop-up when invoicing the contact, when viewing invoices, when uploading bills, when paying bills. I know others have also requested notes to be able to be seen in reports as well.
Having one note section which can have up to 4000 characters is a pretty slack job at resolving this issue.

Yes, please. The notes need to be able to be imported and exported. We also need to have an audit trail on the notes as to who and when it was entered and deleted when applicable.
Also must be searchable. In fact, all items on the contact page should be searchable. Thanks Joana
