Custom operations - If working with custom products and use product variables to define the variable aspects of the products you may also need to do this with operations as well. For example, some operations may not be needed for some sizes of products or the time the operation takes may vary. Use variables for operations in the same way as for parts (see above for details on the use of variables).
Export - To export the operations list to a file select 'File - Export'. The filename is the same as the operations list name and has the extension EX4, for example, RXA15.EX4. The export file is in the: Path for export data
