Cause

In case of Physical Inventory, the comments are restricted to the item level of Physical Inventory Document only. They are not passed to other documents. That is why the comments are not shown there in Inventory Difference Confirmation.

As a workaround, the Internal Comment is added to the PI Count Document XXX. You can check it by following the steps:

  1. Go to the Physical Inventory work center.
  2. Select Monitoring: By PI Count Document.
  3. Search for PI Count Document ID XXX.
  4. Open the PI Count Document ID XXX.
  5. Select View All.
  6. Go to the Count Items tab.
  7. Select Notes sub tab.
