Android Sales App - Business Card Scanner

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 2

Am I missing a setting here?   

The prominent  new "+" icon on the home screen lets our users choose Contact or Lead, however when the form opens the Business Card Scanner is not present.

So to use the business card scanner, our users from the home screen must ignore the New "+" and instead

  • select More...,
  • select a table (doen't matter which one, but the inclination is Contact),
  • select the New "+" from the top of the screen,
  • Select the table (Contact for sure this time),
  • and now the form opens with the business card scanner.  

Is there some method to enable the business card scanner when taking the most direct path to creating a new contact?

    Last month I was working on a business app. This is an Android app and it was able to calculate the tax, send email to customer and update database. If you need I can share a demo of it. Currently I'm working on an app which can sync Android phones data and transfer to another without using Google account. If you have any suggestion, please share.

    The home screen "+" opens a list of tables, once you select the table, a Quick View form is open.  The Quick View form does not feature the business card scanner.

    From the home screen Users must select MORE, select any table, select "+" from the top of the screen, select the contact table, then a Quick Create form is open and the business card scanner is present.

    Are we able to adjust a setting to offer up the business card scanner from the most direct route at the home screen?

    Home screen "+" opens quick view without a business card scanner.

    Hi Justin,

    The form you opened from the  New "+" icon is quick create form or not?
