On the Transport Order page, select the value in either the Transport Sales Comments or Transport Purchase Comments field based on your requirement.
The field value indicates the number of comments linked to the source document, for example, 2.

When a transport order is created, certain values and comments from the related source documents are retrieved and made available on the Transport Order page and its reports.
