Purchase/Work Order Pictures

Feature

Starting with Goldenseal accounting software version 4.2, you can add pictures to Purchase/Work Orders. We also added some currency information there, in preparation for future versions designed to handle multiple currencies.

How to Use

The picture field is currently optional. If you want to use it, you'll need to add it to the PO layout-- either on the main layout, or in the More Info window.

To add a picture to Purchase & Work Orders, follow these steps:

  1. Choose Custom Layouts from the Options menu, and choose Transactions from the submenu.
  2. Enter PO & Work Orders into the Transaction popup field at upper left.
  3. Enter PO Details into the Layout popup field.
  4. Click on the Field tool (fourth row left in the tool palette on the left side of the window).
  5. Click in the layout, and drag a rectangle where you'd like to show the picture.
  6. Choose Picture from the list of available fields.
  7. Click OK.
  8. Close the layout, and save changes.

NOTE-- We suggest that you do not store many large pictures in Goldenseal. They can make your company file huge, which increases the chances it will be damaged, and makes backup less convenient.
