Virtual column as a Note - text field

[ElenaS]

Dear people , 
I build an app to make orders by using a template. And some options are missing for my business need. 
Please can you help me with the followings: 

I need to add a Note place order where I can put some notes regarding the order. Additionally if possible attach the Photo. This info has to be appearing in the order file (PDF) that send when the order status is complete. ()

I can not understand how I can do it with the virtual column, or maybe another way....

I will endlessly appreciate your help!

A virtual column’s value is not editable by users. If you need the information to entered and saved for later reference, you need to add the Note and Photo columns to the data source. If you only need the information temporarily (eg, entered and used at the time of creating your pdf), you might be able to use the INPUT() function at least for the the Note since that’s a text value.

In order to accomplish the following, you need to add columns to your data source and regenerate the columns for the corresponding AppSheet table.
