Annapurna advanced search options.
The Annapurna reference search box can be used to find orders when it used in special ways.
1. If the entry starts and ends with " then this will search the order details for matching text.
For example "Hawkstone" will show all the orders that have the text Hawkstone as part of the order data.
2. If the entry stars and ends with ' then this will search the order comments for matching text.
For example, 'return' will show the orders that have 'return' in the comments.
3. If the entry starts and ends with ^ then this will search for orders downloaded from Solenzara with that number.
For example, ^21345^ will show the Annapurna order with this Solenzara number. Please note that this will require versions of Solenzara and Annapurna updated in the last six months.

Connecting a frame with Case, Cleaner & Cloth
Connecting a frame with Case, Cleaner & Cloth.
A frame record can have entries for Case (on the main product screen) and Cleaner & Cloth on the additional items screen.
If a code is entered into these fields then Annapurna will look for these codes in the frame file and an additional item to the order. It is expected that such items are entered with a 30 eye-size to indicate that they are not ‘normal’ frames.
The case, cloth and cleaner are priced as any other frame and
also inventory is maintained so adding an item to an order will deduct the
levels.
The case, cloth and cleaner can also be sold on a wholesale order.
