Using the Products Module to Map Individual Products

This section calls attention only to the fields and options required for the VSP Interface. For complete information about setting up products, go to Maintaining Product & Service Information.

Complete the instructions in this section if you have already used the VSP Product Mapping Utility to map all of your OfficeMate products for the first time and you need to modify or add individual products; if you have not already mapped products using the VSP Product Mapping Utility, go to Using the VSP Product Mapping Utility to Map Multiple Products.

Here's how to map products individually. Fields highlighted in yellow are required fields.

  1. Open the Products window using one of the following methods:
    • Click the Products icon and select Products and Services.
    • Click Tasks on the OfficeMate main window toolbar and select Products and Services.
  2. Select a product type from the Product Type drop-down menu.
  3. Search for and select a specific product using the search options or click New Product to add a new product to the OfficeMate products database.
  4. Depending on the product type that you are modifying or adding, complete one of the tasks below:
    • If you are modifying or adding lens treatments, select the appropriate radio button from the Frame and Lens Add On Type box, click the VSP Product tab, and select the appropriate radio button and drop-down menu selection.

      If the product does not fit within one of the five radio button categories, the product does not need to be mapped.
