Introduction

This document provides instructions for editing the color itemizations within the Price List Editor.

Procedure

This menu option allows you to edit the itemization of any lens color. However, you can only edit itemizations for existing lens colors. If you want to create a new lens color, you must do so with the Color Database Editor.

From the Optifacts main menu:

Select Option 3 – Editor Utilities and press Enter.

Select Option 4 - Pricing Database Editor and press Enter.

Select Option 8 – Color Itemizations and press Enter.

The Add/Edit Color Codes Menu displays.

Enter the color code as entered in Order Entry but do not include any intensity values. For example, colors like Polarized Green and Brown required an intensity value of 1, 2, or 3 along with the color code when entered in Order Entry but not in this editor. Entering an asterisk (*) will bring up all colors and allow for scrolling through one by one.

If one or more matches are found, you get prompted to edit the current entry or view more.

Responding Yes will begin editing the plastic and glass billing categories.
Responding No will skip the current entry and move on to the next match.
When there are no more entries, a prompt will display to enter a color code to edit.
Press Escape to return to the Pricing Editor Main Menu.

Some reasons to change itemization categories are, wanting glass tint charges to be grouped into the Lens category, having transitions colors into price into Lens category, or even to separate categories for special sales analysis tracking.
