Power Range restrictions on packages

The power restrictions in Annapurna on packages can be interpreted in different ways.  In order to fit in with the classic way of powers from -6 to a combined power of +6 to a 4 cyl then a new tick box has been added to the package configuration. 

If this is how you wish the power restrictions to be applied then this is recommended to be ticked.

If it is not ticked then the combined power of sphere and cylinder is not checked.

Preventing Remote Edge lenses from being cut on certain machines

The lab may decide to direct remote edge work to a different cell of machines which have been configured for remote edge work. If this is the case then there is a  need to prevent remote edge jobs from being called to the regular machines.

This is achieved by an update to Annapurna which will set a flag in the OMA glazing file for remote edge orders and an update in VCADevice program in which a machine can be ticked to indicate that it can process remote edge orders.

NonTol Pricing

Annapurna has been update so if an order is recorded for as being returned for NonTol then only the lens part will be recorded as being replaced free of charge.  Glazing and other items are still charged for. 

On the returns screen, there are two options FOC and Manual Pricing.  For NonTol the Manual pricing should be accepted.  The FOC option applies a overall 100% discount on the order.

Specific target times for treatments

The targets contain a fixed time for coating and another fixed time for tinting.  In practice, the time can vary between different products so there is now a calendar icon alongside the coating. Clicking this will bring up a list of all the products in the treatments csv file.  You can enter a target (as a proportion of the working day which is 8 hours so 0.25 is 2 hours and 1.5 is one day and four hours) alongside each treatment. If a target is not entered here then the default target time on the preceding page will be used.

Quote in reference

There was a database problem when " was included in the reference. This has been circumvented so that Annapurna now correctly displays orders in view jobs where there is a " in the reference.

Changing icon

If you wish to have a different icon then you can create a Annapurna.ico in the Annapurna programs folder with whatever picture you wish.

The icon does have to be in the icon format. There are online convertors to do this.
