Images Menu

The Images menu contains commands to load and manage images (pictures) used by certain programs in the software module.

About Images

A very powerful Invision™ feature is the ability to store one or more images linked to a specific record.  For example, you can store a picture of a house with the accompanying appraisal information or you can store a map to the house location to assist a utility service worker.

Your original images should be stored on the computer or network in the JPEG format with the .jpg file extension  You can use a variety of sources to create the original images.  Some installations store images that are downloaded from a digital camera.  The Internet provides another source for images.

Tips:

• You can manage images at the following windows:

• Employee File Maintenance - Menu Tree

• Employee Master Maintenance - Human Resources Area

• When you load an image into a program window, the program creates a copy of the original image, leaving the original image file intact.

• If you can not access items on the Images menu and you know images are used by the module, please contact Technical Support for assistance.

• If you load multiple images into a program, Invision shows navigation buttons under the window so you can select the image you want see.

  Example:

  To see the previous image, click the Back Arrows << button. To see the next image, click the Forward Arrows >> button.
