I am using the ServiceNow business edition and trying to create a new application.
Steps done to date:
1, Create a new table by extending the TASK table
2. Personalized the form layout to have different sections that are displayed as tabs
3. In one of the the tabs, I have selected the "Additional Comments" field to be displayed. This field is defined as a "Journal field"
4. When I enter data into the "Additional Fields" column, the data is saved. However I cannot get a Journal listing of the prior "Additional Comments" nor can I see the last entered comment in the journal field.
Is it possible to get the Journal listing on the form?
I will be happy to provide any additional information needed.
Thansk,
Prabakar Narayan

I had issues with this too. You should just need a Journal field as specified here in the wiki.
Here's what it looks like on the demo site:
If you right click on the field to show the field details what do you get?
Hope that helps.

Yes, you want the type to be Journal, not Journal Input. Did that work for you?
Thanks,

Thanks Sherry - It sure did work once the field I selected was "Journal" and not "Jounal Input"
