Changing the product names for Solenzara

 

It is now possible to define different names for the Solenzara web catalogue than that used in Annapurna.

Possible reasons for this would be to hide where the lenses are bought from or to unify materials / colours / styles taken from different suppliers.

In “SLZLang” under the lenses tab, there is a link Web Names. Opening this up will show a spreadsheet. If the spreadsheet does not exist then one is created with 4 rows.

Row 1 is the column headers – there are 4 columns used in this file/

Product Area (Lens or Treat)

Column Name (as stated in lenses.csv or treat.csv)

Column Value (the value in the column to be changed)

New Value (the value to be shown in Solenzara).

Row 2 is the titles of the columns in the lenses csv file.

Row 3 is the titles of the columns in the treat csv file.

Row 4 is an example.

This spreadsheet entry will change the Manufacturer for Essilor lenses to be Special on the web.

Column A Lens

Column B Manuf

Column C Essilor

Column D Special

This instructs that in the Lenses csv (Column A), entries in Manuf column (Column B) for Essilor (Column C) are changed to Special (Column D).

Santiago - days of the week.

 Santiago has been updated so that the activities can be run only on certain days of the week.

Also there is an option to launch the activities as minimised so as to stop screens popping up is Santiago is being used on a workstation.

Catalogue Management

 Changes have been made to the management of different catalogue in the SLZLang program.

The update is to allow which catalogue a lens or a frame is to be included is set in the master data folder. When a  bespoke catalogue is to be deployed then it is cross referenced against the master data to determine if the product is deployed fin the catalogue.

Allowing a customer in Annapurna to have a specified product discount category.

 Annapurna pricing records contain the price and a discount category. The discount category is applied in the discount matrix to decide on the appropriate discount.

It is possible to create a pricing record with a blank price and a discount category. Annapurna will note the discount category and move to the next price in the sequence of prices to be checked. When a price is found then the saved discount category will be used instead of the discount category in the prices record that is found.

This is useful when prices are increased. Only the master price needs to be increased rather than having to adjust all the individual bespoke price records.

Restriction on users selecting department for rejects

 There is now an option to limit the department that a user can use when entering rejects. This is a field in the user configuration.
