Introduction

This document provides instructions to search for, add to, change, or delete a work file.

Procedure

While at the Work File Menu, you can also add lenses to your order, edit lenses for ordering, and remove lenses from the work file. You can scan SKUs and add lenses, or you may enter lens descriptions and have Optifacts search for the SKU to add.

Editing the work file is done through an

 Informix Perform screen. The commands for Informix Perform screens

 are at the end of this manual. You can update the quantity and

the tray number associated with the SKU

on this screen. You may also remove entries. Adding entries to the work file is not done through this screen. You may add lenses to the work file in

several ways. The simplest way would be to scan a barcode each time for every lens you want to order. This method is

“Fast Entering,” menu option

4 on the menu.

If you need to order 20 lenses, you need to scan the SKU twenty times. If you enter

an SKU that does not exist on your inventory system, a

report printed lists these when you exit this routine. You

then need to determine if the non-existent SKU entered was correct or if you need to add this SKU to your inventory system.
