# Memos

Memos in AyaNova are an internal "email" type system for sending messages to other AyaNova users.

## Authorization Roles required

Memos are available to _all_ "inside" users of AyaNova regardless of their [roles](ay-biz-admin-roles.md).

(Subcontractor and Customer type Users do not have access to the Memo feature.)

## How to access Memos

Memos are accessed in the following ways:

- From the `Home` [navigation drawer](ay-start-form-overview.md#navigation-drawer) `Memos` item to open the Memos [data table](ay-start-form-data-tables.md)

## Memos data table

The Memos [data table](ay-start-form-data-tables.md) shows all Memos received and access to common data table [menu options](ay-start-form-data-tables.md#common-menu-options).
