Here is an example of how this can be used:

  1. Create a Folder called "POS Images" in the file manager and upload JPG files
  2. Set the folder for Display Images in POS to the "POS Images" folder ("C:\Program Files\Link Technologies\LinkWEB\App_Data\FileManager\POS Images")
  3. Users can now maintain the POS Images file using the File Manager

Hi Alvis, 

I have tested the case with version 11.5.0430:

  1. I was unable to upload images . Error: The file extension isn't allowed.
  2. It was identified that the default path is "File Manager" in comment 2. This not the same in the install for UAT. Refer to Figure 1.
To confirm, I tried after re installing LinkSOFT again.
