Full Job – When selected, the lab is expected to edge lenses. Frames may either be supplied by the account, lab, customer, the vendor, or the order could be lenses only. Please include box measurements or trace information. To learn more about what to do with frames when received, please visit: Receive Frame and Assign To Bin
Uncut No Frame – When selected, the lab is expected to return only a pair of surfaced (and apply any applicable coatings) lenses not edged. The account will edge the job in-house. For this selection only, trace information, or box measurements are not needed; but crib diameter will need to be specified.
Uncut With Frame - When selected, the lab is expected to return only a pair of surfaced (and apply any applicable coatings) lenses not edged. The account will edge the job in-house. Please include box measurements or trace information.
Edge Only - When selected, the lab is expected to edge the lenses. Frames may either be supplied by the account, lab, customer, the vendor or the order could be lenses only. Please include box measurements or trace information. To learn more about what to do with frames when received, please visit: Receive Frame and Assign To BinThe difference between an edge only and a full job, is that Edge Only orders will not relieve lens inventory.
Addons - When selected, this order type allows the lab to enter only addons for an order. No lens processing or edging is done.

Order # - Also dependent on configuration, the order number will auto-populate. Character length can range from 4-8, depending on lab preference. Note that some of the functions allow searching for the order by tray#, order# or PO#. If you plan on using the Order number when doing some other functions (ie lens pick or device interfacing) the order number must be 7 or 8 characters in length. This field can be useful for searching for a particular order within the Customer Service screen.

Vertical Decentration - If vertical decentration is specified, enter it in this field. Only applicable for SV lenses. This is not required.
Seg Height – Enter seg height in this field. Ensure it is appropriate for the lens style and frame selected. Only required for multifocal lenses.
o Seg Height Breakpoint (System Settings > Surf1) – There are two methods of specifying seg heights. RX Universe allows the use of either method or both methods at once. All seg heights that are entered, that are less than or equal to the breakpoint, will be interpreted as the distance above/below the datum line. All seg heights that are entered above the breakpoint, will be interpreted as distance from the bottom of the frame.
Below Optical Center – The distance between the optical center and the segment.
Add – This field is only for multifocal lenses. This is where the prescribed additional (add) power would be entered.
U-Add – This field is used only for occupational glasses, sometimes referred to as “Double D”. With these types of lenses, the wearer has a second add power on the upper portion of the lens.

75 for Marginal.
Diam: Force for each Eye which size/diameter you want to use during blank selection (Ex 75, 60, etc.).
Thick: Specify a special thickness code to be selected Ex T, N)
