Specifying Front curve on orders to suppliers.

The customer can specify a front curve (base) but if a front curve is not explicitly entered then the order to the lens supplier does not have a front curve specified.  Not all lens suppliers do allow a front curve to be specified but for those that do then there is an update to allow lenses to be ordered that match the lab standards.  Quite often the lens supplier chooses front curves to lenses which are made to a global standard and the standard may not be in agreement with the lab standard.

There is now the opportunity to identify lenses where they can be ordered with a particular base. This is done in the lens data and from that in the technical option at the bottom.

The base is selected from a chart basesel.ini which is placed in the "files" folder.

Clearing Completion Date after Uncompleting an Order.

There is now a setting to clear the completion date when a completed order is marked as not completed. 

This makes it easier to understand in customer services but can cause knock-on effects when comparing reports as jobs will have disappeared from the completed list.

It is now possible to start Annapurna with run time parameter of RAPTORSEND.

This will start Annapurna, go direct to the purchasing screen and for each supplier in the orders to send list, the orders will be transmitted.
