    2. Stock No: “DV & NV” gives Frame Free
    3. Stock No Starts with: “FREE” gives the Whole Dispense Free
    4. Stock No Starts with SPECSDISCOUNT followed by a number: eg “SPECSDISCOUNT95” discounts the job by that amount (number) eg £95 in this example

    14. Stock No Starts with: “FixedPrice” then Opticabase will ask how much you want the patient to pay. eg. The total comes to £125 but you want the patient to pay £30

It does not matter what it says in the Accessory column. The Stock No. is the important information for Opticabase to calculate how much discount to give off which category.
