Why each option

To easily view only the work notes in the Activity log, the subject matter expert should utilize the funnel icon to filter the displayed activities.

AClick Context menu > Work Notes View

"Work Notes View" is not a standard option found directly in the context menu for filtering the activity log.

BClick Personalize icon and select Activity Stream

Clicking the Personalize icon and selecting 'Activity Stream' typically controls the visibility of the stream itself, not its content filtering.

CRight click form header > Form Layout > Add Work Notes Section

Modifying the 'Form Layout' to 'Add Work Notes Section' changes the form's structure to include a dedicated field, not to filter the existing activity log's display.

DClick Funnel icon and select only work notesCorrect

The funnel icon (filter icon) in the Activity stream allows users to select specific activity types, such as 'Work notes', to display only relevant entries, making it easier to review. This feature specifically enables filtering the activity stream to show only desired updates.

EClick Context menu > History

The 'History' option from the context menu typically shows record revisions or audit history, not a filtered view of the activity stream's work notes.
