This optional feature automatically captures an image of the vehicle/customer associated with each order either on order creation or order check-in, depending on configuration.

The image is displayed for the active order on Order Preview, the Order Card used in Open Order Lanes, the Order Check-in Confirmation, and on Service Point selectors.

If the Service Point or order destination is changed, the user is able to retake the vehicle image. If the order is split, the vehicle image is copied to each newly-created split order.

The XKM receives the image from the POS and displays it with the order on the kitchen display.

This feature enables users to see an image of the vehicle/customer associated with each order to improve speed-of-service and order accuracy.
