Mobile Phone - add picture

We have an extensive Time & Expense app that I want to be able to add the receipt picture via the mobile device camera per expense record.

Adding the expense is easy, but our current method of adding receipts is an event related table with a collection of receipts that are not oriented per expense (yes, that one fixable problem). Now, I could add the "Add Receipt" button to the expense record, but they still have to photograph the receipt first. I want to do this in one step - click the "add receipt" button, the camera open, take the pic, save to the expense record.

Is there a way to do this while avoiding another expensive add-on like FastField license per user seat?

Thank you,

  • I only have experience on an iPhone, but in my experience when you go to add a picture, which presumably is a child table with just a few fields, including the file attachment field, when you are sitting in Add Mode on the child table and push the native button to upload the file attachment, the phone will ask if you want to use the camera, or use the camera roll. 

    So it would seem to me if you select the option to take a picture then that's one step, right?
