Release marks for nesting and ordering

When you have assigned marks to a lot (see Assign marks to a lot), you can release them for Nesting and Ordering. The following instructions tell you how to do this.

1.            Open the Production Lotting form for a Contract. See Open lotting information for a contract.

2.            On the Production Lotting - Details form, select one or more marks in the Lotted tab and click Actions > Release.

The selected marks are released and displayed in the Released tab. They can now be accessed in the  Nesting and Ordering module.

You can also un-release marks which will remove them from the  released tab and place them back into the lotted tab. This will also remove the selected marks from the Nesting and Ordering module. However, if the mark has already progressed through the nesting process and has been allocated to production then the mark needs to be removed from these processes before it can be withdrawn from its released status.

If the mark is able to be moved back to lotted, select marks in the Released tab and click Actions (button) > Un Release.
