How to modify the xml file to include it?

RE: Item picture into Purchase orders
Is this still desired, or have you already done this?
If not, some questions, first:
1. Would the pictures be thumbnails? Considering "real estate" of the PO's output, I would think large pictures would be a very terrible idea. [what dimensions would be useful?] That said, even thumbnails might NOT be so great because of #2.
2. Where would it appear? [desired column placement?] Adding an image as a new column will reduce the content [width] of the other columns and/or cause the need to add additional text wrapping.
Also, this may be a specific feature only for your needs, as I'm not sure if web-erp would like this feature added, due to the issues posed in the questions presented above. [I could be wrong, we'll just have to see]
I may take a look at it, but it will depend on the answers.

Hi TurboPT: Yes, it is still desired ;-)
I did not understand how XML file worked, so I was afraid of messing around. I agree with you, a thumbnail should be enough. Where? Probably close to the item code (after or before, no big deal, should be ok).
If you need more info, pls let me know!
Thanks,

RE: Item picture into Purchase orders
Hi TurboPT:
If this change is going to happen I think it is time for a new layout. On it's current form , more than half A4 is lost by header information, and only less than half useful for the lines on the PO. For sure if the user purchases only a few items each time it's OK, but foir more than 10 it becomes a lot of pages.
It is only me, or someone else shares the same point of view?
Should we have a portrait PO?
Regards,
Pak Ricard
