Using a Lab Interface
You can use a lab interface to send lab orders from AcuityLogic after setting up lens items and labs. This section explains how to send and review orders in AcuityLogic POS.
Topics include the following:
To create and send orders using a lab interface
- In AcuityLogic POS, create an order following the normal process. See Creating Eyeglass Orders in AcuityLogic POS.
To ensure the order is sent correctly using the lab interface, select the lab set up for the lab interface in the Lab drop-down list in the Eyeglass Order tab.
- Price the order following the normal process. See Pricing Orders.
- Invoice the order following the normal process. See Creating Invoices for Orders.
The order is sent automatically at a scheduled time as part of an AcuityLogic X-Link integration. The integration is set up by Eyefinity during the lab interface setup process.
For the Innovations lab interface, orders can also be sent manually in AcuityLogic DC. See Sending Lab Orders Using the Innovations Lab Interface from AcuityLogic DC.
To view the status of orders sent using a lab interface
- In AcuityLogic POS, open the Orders tab for that patient with the order. See Viewing Patient Order Information.
- Click the Status (S) icon that appears next to the order.
The eyeglass lab order appears in a popup window. The information provided differs depending on the lab interface used.
