# Naming, Tagging and Photographing a Batch

> The four fields that make a batch findable a year later: an inline-renamed name, free-text notes, tag chips, and a cover photo of the finished media.

A batch arrives with an automatic name like `Print list — Aug 18, 2026`, which tells you nothing
in six months. The batch panel gives you four fields to fix that, and all four stay editable at
every status — including Deployed.

## Renaming a batch

Click the batch name at the top of the panel and it becomes an input. **Enter** or clicking away
saves; **Escape** cancels. An empty name is ignored, so you cannot accidentally blank it.

Names are what the Access Media search box matches on, so make them searchable rather than
decorative: "Depot 2 replacements, March" beats "Batch 14".

## Notes

The **Notes** box is free text and saves when you click out of it. Use it for the things you will
want and never remember — the supplier, the material and finish, the quote number, the reason
for the run, anything odd about the order.

Notes are searched alongside the name on the Access Media page, so a supplier name typed here is
enough to find every run you ordered from them.

## Tags

Tags are chips, one word or phrase each, for grouping runs that belong together — `depot-2`,
`stickers`, `reprint`, `q3`.

* Type and press **Enter** to commit a tag. A trailing comma commits it too, so you can type
  `depot-2, stickers,` straight through.
* **Backspace** in an empty tag box removes the last tag.
* Click the **x** on a chip to remove that specific tag.
* Tags are stored lowercase, and a tag you already have is ignored rather than duplicated.

In the Print History panel, every tag in use appears as a filter chip, so tagging is the fastest
way to pull up "every reprint" or "everything for depot 2" later.

## Cover photo

The **Image** field takes one photo of the finished media — the printed sticker on the roll, the
engraved plaque, the sign on the wall. Upload any image file; it is stored privately and served
back through QRtub rather than from a public URL.

Once set, the photo appears as a thumbnail beside the batch in the Print History list, which
makes visual identification much faster than reading names. Deleting the batch deletes the photo
with it.

A photo is a useful stand-in for the Media detail QRtub does not track — there is no field for
material, cost or supplier, so a picture plus a line in the notes is the practical substitute.
