Level X Format

Select if the note number should be numeric, alphanumeric, or roman numeral.

Before/End

Add text or symbols to be included before or after the number. Place entered symbols or text in double-quotes.

Cross-reference

Create a label for note number references.

Note numbering pool

Note numbers are not entered as static numbers, but rather as placeholders that pull the next number available from a pool. This way notes may be added or removed from the document without having to manually renumber the remaining notes. Select the pool from which to pull a number.

Belongs to category

Type or select the category for the note number. Categories could coincide with each of the financial statements, depreciation, tax, for example.

Reset pool counter

Resets the counter for the currently selected note numbering pool to restart the numbering sequence.

Allow wrapping

Should the note number and its preceding and subsequent text or symbols be wide enough to reach the end of a the line, this option allows or prevents the number from wrapping to the next line.

Skip print

Select to prevent the note number from appearing on the printed document. If using a Note Number Style, this option may have been dictated by the style and will not have an effect regardless of the status of this checkbox.

Skip following tab if skipped

If the note number is immediately followed by a tab, this option allows for the tab to be automatically skipped in the event the number itself is skipped to keep spacing consistent.

A preview window appears at the bottom of the dialog to ensure the configuration matches the intended results.
