How to add Notes and Photos to a job?
Adding notes, files and photos to your jobs couldn't be easier using the GeoOp mobile app. A file or note can be added either as a general record on jobs, or attached to a particular Charge item (labour, material or payment).
To add a note to a job, you have 2 options:
From the Overview tab, click on the Add Note button
From any tab on the job, click + > Note
You will be asked to select the type of note you'd like to create from one of these categories:
Photos: directly taken from your device's camera or uploaded from your device's gallery
File: allow you to type a note and attach any type of document to it.
Signature: allow you to collect a digital signature that you can capture on your device's screen
Barcode: allow you to scan a barcode with your phone and store the barcode number and photo to the job.
Once your note is ready, press save for the note to be added to the job.
Quick photo upload to a job
To make you save even more time managing your jobs, we added a quick way for you to add multiple photos to a job.
Simply click on the job card, either from the Schedule or Jobs tab, and click + > Upload photo. You will be prompted to chose between your Photo Gallery or Camera. Simply select or take all the photos you need, confirm and they will all be added as a note. You will need to enter a description of your note that will automatically apply to all your photos. If you need, you can also update the description of each individual photo by simply editing them separately.

However, you can also add a separate description/label on each individual if required.

Click on the pencil icon of the photo/file you'd like to update
Enter a description in the Description field below the image/file preview
Once done, click Done
Go back to the initial screen and don't forget to press Save
