Menu: Inventory->Retail Inventory->Images Tab

Action: RETLINV

This tab displays the photos and images that have been attached to the inventory.

Once images are inserted they may be Deleted/Removed from the screen by clicking the Red X button. Removing the image from the screen does not delete the image from the computer.

To print a copy of the image click the Printer button. To display a larger version of the image click the image. Hold the mouse over an image without clicking to see the actual path to the image file.

Adding Images

Supported image formats are: JPG, PNG, BMP, TIFF. JPG is the preferred image format. Images are not re-sized or scaled. The actual image file is copied into the database, so the source image can be deleted or moved after import.

To add a new image

  1. Select the Add Image button on the form. You can either select an image file from the disk OR insert an image using the URL from a website.

File from Disk: If there is no URL in the clipboard, a file select dialog will open and you can select a JPG from the file system.

Image URL from website: The image must be a JPG image for this shortcut to work. Visit a web site with the image to insert. Using Google Chrome Right click the desired image, choose Copy Image URL. Now back in ProfitSystem click the Add Image button, it will prompt "There is a Image URL in the clipboard" and ask to insert it. Answer YES and the image will appear.
