Introduction
This document provides instructions for assigning bin locations to lenses.
Use the bin location editor to enter bin location for your stocked lenses. The Bin Location Entry screen is located on the Editor Menu off the Lens Inventory Main Menu.
Bin locations, if present, will print on the pick ticket to show the stock clerk where the lens should be located. The bin locations will also be sent along with lens orders and packing lists will be sent back from lens vendors showing those bin locations, making the task of putting lens inventory on your shelf quite a bit simpler.
You may enter bin locations for lens products based on any of the lenses characteristics including manufacturer, diameter range, base curve range, add power range, lens style, seg size, lens type, lens color, or even a previous bin location.
Any lenses that match your search will display on the screen, showing you the current values for bin location and the new value you will be setting the bin location to. If your search has more matches than can appear on the screen at one time, the screen will clear and the next matches will appear after you have accepted the changes to the screen. If you answer No to any display, all previous screens will NOT be changed and your cursor will be placed back at the search form.
