The edit made through the right-click menu is intended to be a temporary comment that retains within the field until the driver logs out of the dispatch board. When the driver logs in again, the default comment will display again.

A dispatcher has the ability to right-click on the driver within the Dispatch driver pane and select Edit Comments if they would like to display a different comment for the driver's logged in session (ie - "Leaving at 4pm today").
