Holding orders for Tint Samples / Match Tint in Annapurna.

 Annapurna has a new feature so that that orders for tint samples can be identified in Annapurna.

In Settings / Job Entry / Tints there is a new setting for Tint Sample codes.  Here you enter the list of codes that are to be held.  The codes are separated with a : character.

When an order is entered with one of these tinting codes then the order is marked as "Waiting for Sample". This is show in View Orders and there is a tick box in the View Detail screen.  When the sample arrives then the tick box can be unticked.

The source rules can be set to have a rule SAMPLETINT to indicate the supplier for orders with such tints. If set to INHOUSE then the lenses can be ordered if needed when the sample has arrived.
