Images can be included in custom fields. Use text custom fields for this purpose. After the field is defined under Settings, image content can be added on the relevant transaction form or under Form Defaults for the form on which you have placed the custom field.
Rather than incorporate the image itself into Manager’s business data file, the image must be stored at a web-accessible location. HTML code is entered into the custom field referencing the URL of the stored image.
Example
A text custom field placed on sales invoices is defined, with a Name of Photo. The custom field is defined to show on printed documents. On a sales invoice, the following HTML code is inserted, referencing a photograph of an apple:
The resulting sales invoice shows the custom field with the photograph:
Notes
Resize large images before storing them.
