From time to time, our customers need to store images of containers, goods, damages, equipment, etc., on TrakIT. Although it was previously feasible to upload photos under the Documents tab, accessing these images required downloading them again.
In our most recent update, we've introduced a dedicated "Photos" tab within the Work Order. Users can now conveniently upload photos here, and they will be showcased in a gallery format, displaying all images as thumbnails. By clicking on a photo, users can easily view them in a slide-show format.
Visual documentation through photos adds an extra layer of clarity and precision to the communication and record-keeping associated with each shipment. They can capture the condition of the container or truck at various stages, providing a visual history that can be crucial for dispute resolution, quality control, and accountability.
Below is a preview of the newly added Photos tab:
The title of each photo can be changed as required by clicking the title.
Enabling Photos Tab
To enable the 'Photos' tab on a Work Order, a couple of steps need to be taken:
1) Enable on Workflow - Go to Admin > Workflow Management. Select the Workflow you need to enable photos on. Go to the "WO Tabs" tab. Select "Photos" and click Save.
2) Enable Role Permissions - Go to Admin > Role Management. Select the Role Customisation tab. Select a role that you need to provide access to. Under Operations > Work Orders, scroll to the bottom and select the permissions needed.
As this is a new feature, we are eager to hear your feedback on this. Please let us know if you face any issues while using the Photos tab.
