Job Planner & Job Quoter

How do I plan a job?

To edit a job within Job Planner the job's status needs to be set to Planning.

How do I quote a job?

To view a job within Job Quoter the job's status needs to be set to either Quoting or Quoted.

What is the difference between planning and quoting a job?

Jobs have to be created inside Job Planner because assemblies and laser cut parts need to have a flow tag. Quoting a job is not required provided all laser cut parts already exist in Laser Cut Inventory. (If a part does not exist in the inventory, the row will be highlighted with a red color)

How does a laser cut part get added to laser cut inventory?

You need to load a nest that contains said part to update its information and then the job needs to be run through workspace. Each process (flow tag) in Settings > Edit Flow Tags has a Add to inventory (image) and Remove from inventory (image) checkbox which dictates when a laser cut part is added or removed from the inventory.

What are templates used for?

Typically a job marked as template signifies its ready to be used in Workspace; That is, its planned and quoted already.

You can only send a job into workspace if and only if (1) the job is a template and (2) your currently viewing the job.
