Feature Overview: Uploading Locally Stored Sessions
This document will demonstrate creating, uploading, and removing locally stored sessions from the CountXL application.
1.
Navigate
to the Count XL application on your device, tap to launch and enter your Yellow
Dog Client ID, username, and password to login
2. Enter a session name, and if your organization has multiple locations, select a location from the Store dropdown
3. Begin
taking your counts. Users can use the blue buttons on the side of the EA602, or
EA630 to engage the Scanner, or they can use the search icon to manually search
for items.
4. Once
counts are complete select the cloud with the up arrow in the top right to
finalize your session.
5. A pop up will appear with the option to confirm you are Finalizing or to
Cancel. Finalizing will send the session to Yellow Dog and remove it from the
device
6. If
you have lost internet connection while attempting to Finalize your session,
you will get a popup that states that the Session has been stored locally, due
to a Network issue. Select OK to close
the popup
7. After
selecting OK to close the alert you will be taken back the main screen. At the bottom users will note a box that says Locally
Stored Sessions and a number indicating how many locally stored sessions are on
the device. Note: Users can choose to create additional sessions for the
same location even while Wi-Fi is inaccessible. Users will not be able to create
sessions for different locations while Wi-Fi is inaccessible because the
application will not be able to download items.
8. Once
Wi-Fi is accessible again and users are ready to send sessions to Yellow Dog,
they will have the option to Upload All, or upload sessions individually.
a.
To
upload all, tap the box that says locally stored sessions. Users will see a
list of the sessions stored locally, including the name of the session, the
store the session was created for, the number of items counted, and when the
session was created
b. Select
Upload All to send the locally stored sessions to Yellow Dog and confirm by selecting Let’s Go!
c. As
the sessions are uploading you will see them disappear from the Local Sessions
screen. Once complete, you will be taken back the main screen, and you’ll note the Locally Stored Sessions box now
says 0
d. To upload individually, tap on the session in question. This will open
the session editor
e. From within the session editor select the cloud icon with the up arrow
to finalize the session and send it to Yellow Dog
f. A pop up will appear with the option to confirm you are Finalizing or to
Cancel
g. The
next screen will confirm the Upload was successful. Select OK, to be taken back
the main screen. Here you will be able to tap the
Locally Stored Sessions box again, to upload or delete any remaining sessions.
