4. Saving a Cut List in Tekla PowerFab and Importing the Cut List in to SP-PLM
Saving the Cut List
Sending PLM a cut list and receiving feedback is the most common workflow for this integration. This can be done as a standalone workflow, or as an additional step to the nesting request workflow.
Open the Production Control Job, select "Review" then "Cut Lists" from the Production Control menu.
At the bottom of the window, click "New Cut List".
Filter your selection if needed, click "Make Report", then "Save Cut List"
Enter a description and due date for your cut list. Make sure to check "Share Cut List" so SP-PLM can import it.
Now, the new cut list will show up on the cut lists screen.
Double click a line to see the items on that cut list.
Importing the Cut List
In PLM, from the Fabrication Job tab, click Import then select your cut list option
Select the cut list job and then the cut list to import; change options as required before clicking OK.
