# Create Employee Notes

The [Notes tab](/doc/docs/notes-tab) of the employee record lists all [Log Entries](/doc/docs/log-entries-overview-security) where the Employee was tagged. Employee Notes can be for a variety of reasons, such as 'No Show', 'Late for Shift', 'Exceptional Service', and more.

> When a Log Entry is created and tied to an Employee who also has access to employee records, that Log Entry will be hidden from their view when reviewing this tab.

While the 'Notes' tab is where all records are stored for a specific employee, users cannot create an employee note on this tab. Rather, they can be created in the Logbook or Daily Sales Summary.
