# Customer Profile: Overview Section - Journal Tab

The *Journal* tab on the Customer Profile screen contains a list of all journal entries on the customer record, displaying major details in the list view, including date, time, note, contact, and topic. The journal tracks the history of your interactions with a customer. Some journal entries are auto generated, like when a ticket is created or closed. 

| We strongly recommend you also create journal notes to log any conversations, actions, or information employees should know about the customer. |
