BBB/TXXX
BBB is the Branch Code, T is the Type and XXX is a sequential number.
The Types are as follows:
S - Spectacle, i.e. glazing orders.
L - Lenses ordered separately from the glazing order, e.g. Uncuts or Remote Edged.
F - Frame ordered for a glazing order but from a separate supplier to the workshop.
ST - Stock, i.e. products NOT ordered for a specific patient.
C - Contact Lenses.
So a typical Purchase Order Reference might look like these -

Creating an initial Purchase Order.
Sending it to the supplier.

Locking And Unlocking Clinic Times - Enterprise You can now lock and unlock clinic times within the diary. This is a separate feature to reserving appointments.
Locking an appointment is designed to make it difficult to book an appointment in to that slot, with only the user who has locked it/ the user whose clinic it is/ a super user able to unlock it. In this respect a locked appointment is for blocking out time in the clinic that isn’t intended to be booked into, this could be for training, a visit from a rep, or lunch.
Locking An Appointment
To lock an appointment, right click the appointment and select 'Lock Slot & Make Unbookable'.

Custom Appointment Durations - Enterprise You may have a user who needs a different amount of time to carry out an appointment to the one that the appointment is set to. E.g. you may set an eye exam to be 30 minutes, but your pre-reg optometrist may need 45 minutes. In order that the correct amount of time is blocked out for the pre-reg, without users having to manually alter appointment times, you can create custom appointment lengths.
Click the Back Office & System Modules drop-down and then click on 'Maintenance' to navigate to the Maintenance module.
