It is possible to do this in Annapurna.  Suppose want to import from Younger.

Updates Oct 6th.

SF6 Importing

Handling of macros is improved.

Customer

Bug fix where not all the changes to the fields were logged.

It is not possible to export the address fields as separate columns – setting flag.

A CSV export for Sage can now be produced.

Commercial.

It is not possible to input Prices.csv generated by 3^rd parties. Run with run time parameter PRICESCSV.

Pricing.

Cost prices can now support a hierarchy so if there is not a finished cost price then it drops to rx/standard cost price.

Invoice.

Xero interface file added – basic construct so far.

Purchase Orders.

Record and show deliveries against an order. Useful for when multiple deliveries for frames.

Printing will now only print the selected lines.

Bin location added for printing on delivery document.

Order Entry.

Extended PD lab to show manufacturing tolerances.

When a reference was repeated then -ddmm was added to the reference. If the same reference was repeated on the same day on the following year then this gave a problem. This is now handled by creating an additional suffix to the reference as Annapurna requires unique reference. The alternative is to archive orders for earlier years.

Browse Orders.

Added Cancelled filter.

Frame Data management.

New options added for cleaning trace files (if saved from a job then rx data was also being saved) and identify library shapes with HBOX/VBOX differences – probably indicates a poor trace. Also to set/reset the retrace flag.

Supplier Tracking.

Bug fix: If an order went into status traced while the lenses were on order (can happen if the send in frame is sent in) then tracking from the supplier was no longer updated as Annapurna deemed the order/lenses had been received and the order was in production.

Lens Ordering.

It is now possible to add SURF as the rx supplier to indicate that the supplier for a lens in this range is InHouse Surfacing department. So a lens can progress from In House Stock, Buyin Stock, In House Surfaced, Buy in lens according to the range rules.

OC Height.

Different optical machine manufacturers have different interpretations on OCHT and SEGHT for progressive lenses. An option was added so that different values can be provided in the files placed in the glazing folder and the external(checking) folder.

Assign Tray.

Can now produce a file for conveyor controlling.

Drafts

When sending an email then the logged in user can be entered in the email.

Orinoco.

Repeating bar codes in barcode entry are consolidated into one line on the Orinoco order.

VCADevice.

Minimum tray length implemented on the frame type pop-up at the end of tracing. Tess traces drop leading zeros.

A check on the qualiry of the Z data added to go with a check on quality of radii data.

When there are multiple traces and tracer sends unknown job number then there was some uncertainty over which trace went with which tracer. The unknown traces are now identified by the tracer id.

Validator Web Service.

Validation can now be set to make a jpeg file to show where lens does not cut out. Add MAKEJPEGS=1 to the input file.

Library frame but with a specific trace

Problem with library frames using a non-library trace.

Annapurna allows the shape source to be a library frame or a trace file but what if the library trace is not reliable and a trace is added.  Previously the shape source was kept as library frame so it was not clear that a trace has been added.  Now the shape source is changed to trace so it ieasy to see and the trace is selected.  That in turn creates a complication in that it is now difficult to review the library frame without switching back to choosing the library frame. So a frame icon has been added which appears when a library frame is being used but the shape source is not library frame. This will allow the library frame details to be reviewed as well as the shape.
