Attach Image from Context Menu

Available from version 3.6 Mobile WMS for Dynamics AX/365FO and Mobile WMS app version 1.4.0.1 for Android 

From version 3.6 of Mobile WMS for Dynamics AX/365FO it is possible to attach an image to any data displayed on the device, be it orders or order lines.

In the following example the user has created a Quarantine Order from the device, but afterwards found out he/she needed to attach additional images of why the item was put in quarantine.

In that case he navigates to the quarantine orders page on the scanning device, finds the order, and clicks the context menu, as seen below.

From there the user enters a flow, where he can attach any number of images to the order referenced.

The device sends in the image asynchronously to the Dynamics AX/365FO in a later process. Therefore all images taken from a device are put in a media queue, which is placed at Mobile WMS/Inquiries/Media Queue.

In this queue it is possible to see the local id on the device (Its path and filename), which device it is coming from, and where it should be attached, once the device sends in the image.


Once the device sends in the image, the Mobile WMS module will attach the image to the referenced record.

Once the image has been attached, the user can see it when he/she enters the flow for the order:
