Create/View SDCR Notes

The ability to view and/or edit notes related to a SDCR is available via the Add Note hyperlink on the following screens:

  • State Department Clearance (ICs and FIC/DIR)
  • State Department Clearance Snapshot (ICs and FIC/DIR)
  • SDC Form and SDC Snapshot (State Department)

This allows notes to be added to a SDCR without a specific action being taken.

NOTE: These notes are created and viewable by the appropriate Institute/Center (IC), the FIC/DIR, and the State Department.
