Adding Comments for MSDS

Add comments for Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) attached to product records when you must clarify information on or about the MSDS.

For example:

If you obtain MSDS updates from multiple web sites, include the alternate web site addresses as a comment.

You can enter comments on either the Product MSDS / Hazardous Information screen or the MSDS Sheet Maintenance screen.
