### From the Client's Notes Screen

To delete a note from the client's all notes section, simply select the caret menu on the note you wish to delete, and then select the Delete this Note option.

### Can a Deleted Note Be Recovered?

No, a note can not be recovered once deleted.

However, granted that you have permission to view the Audit Log application, you could review the audit log entry for when the note was created and recreate the note from details recorded in the audit log.
