* Android O/S 4.4.x Kit Kat or higher on previously verified devices

== Related Documents ==
None

= User Notes =
This is a release of the Aptean POD – Calidus Edition device application.

== Released Incidents / Changes ==
This release contains the following fixes/changes:

232821 - CUSTOM - Crosswater Scanning Method Changes

The application now captures scanning method when scanning products and returns the data to the server for analysis and reporting. This captures whether the product was selected from the screen (ACCEPT), scanned using the on-board camera scanner (SCAN), keyed in and confirmed on the device (KEY) or automatically confirmed by Collect/Deliver all functions or when all products within a container are successfully completed (AUTO).

Note: devices with an onboard scanner are defined by the application as KEY methods in this release.

== Setup ==
Details of any system setup required by either Aptean or Client.

||Client ||Installation ||The APK needs to be updated/installed on devices
|}

Note: A server application release is required to successfully store the captured entry methods. However, this version of the mobile application does not require this to be released – the application is backward-compatible and may be released before the server modifications. The server Product Scanning Report will not work without this version of the mobile application being rolled out to devices.

== User Instructions ==
User details and instructions of the new or changed process

!'''Topic''' !!'''Action''' !!'''Description'''
|-
|Usage ||None ||The application is used in exactly the same way as before with no changes to the user interface – the capture of entry method is seamless in the background of the device.
|-
|Installation ||Initial Login ||As the application’s internal database is updated by this release, the application will re-initialise on first start-up after installing this version. This requires the user to log in initially before selecting the vehicle. The application will walk the user through the process.

Note: It is recommended that any jobs in progress on the device are complete '''before''' this version is installed on the mobile device. No data will be lost, but jobs in progress may require items re-scanning if this is installed mid-way through processing a job. In progress loads will not be affected.

|}

== Performance Notes ==
It is not thought that this change will have any impact on performance although it is our recommendation that the performance of all areas of the application is validated during testing to ensure that performance is still good.

== Related Releases ==
Android mobile device application release 4.5.0.0 must be active prior to this release.

== Technical Changes & Special Notes ==

=== Technical Changes ===
The following technical changes have been made as part of this release:
# Build APK, which needs to be installed on the device.

=== Special Notes ===
