A simple request from a recent launch. 'We want to add images of the items from the Lab, can we easily do this from the BC app on our phones?'
Yes you can! Here is how
Download and connect to BC on your phone
- Dynamics 365 Business Central on the App Store (apple.com)
- Dynamics 365 Business Central - Apps on Google Play
Visit the items list - you can search for the pages now

| The Role Center on Mobile |
 |
| Access the Items list via the menu or search function |
 |
| Pick the item you wish to update |
 |
| Tap the title area - to access the Fact Box features |
 |
| Tap the Picture caption and then Take from the menu to activate your phones camera. |
The system lets you review the image before you replace the current image. If you want to record more images, these can be added as attachments. The Picture image is the image that will display in the item list.
That's it - very easy.
If you waned to do a bulk upload of images instead that's also possible - Importing Many Item Pictures from a ZIP File - Business Central | Microsoft Learn
