Overwrite stock prior to selecting boards

 

System parameter to set how stock control operates

 

Set this parameter to automatically overwrite stock before boards are selected from the board library / database. For example, when a working board list is created for a new cutting list.

For board library import formats which require a file to be selected for overwriting stock (e.g BDX), a file selection dialog appears when required.

 

Notes

 

- Where working board lists are created in quick succession, the program overwrites stock again if more than two minutes have elapsed since the last overwrite.

 

- Standalone operations (such as optimising) which create working board lists from the library also overwrite stock if this option is selected but this is limited to those board library formats which do not require a filename to be entered (e.g woodStore SQL server database).
