A method of providing finishing parameters related to an ophthalmic lens adapted to a spectacle frame begins by providing generic finishing parameters (GFP) for an ophthalmic lens adapted to a spectacle frame, the generic finishing parameters (GFP) being associated to a first identifier (ID1). Next a request (REQ1) from a distant entity, indicating an association between said first identifier ID1 and a second identifier (ID2) assigned to the chosen finishing entity (CFE) is received. Then the method generates specific finishing parameters (SFP) for a chosen finishing entity (CFE) by associating the generic finishing parameters (GFP) with specific parameters corresponding to the chosen finishing entity (CFE). Next a second request (REQ2) associated with at least the first identifier (ID 1) is received based upon which the specific finishing parameters (SFP) are sent to the chosen finishing entity (CFE).
