How do I set cutting charges based on the size of the input panels instead of the actual cut length

Good afternoon,

Is there the option to calculate cutting charges according to the (lenght+width)*2 of the panels.

Right now the software is including trimming and full lenght cuts in the calculation which is hard to explain /accept for the customer. He doesn't see the direct relation between these cuts and what he ordered.

For example: 2 panels 720mm*584mm should be charged 5,22m1 cutting charges. The software calculates 12,888m1 based on a panelsize of 2800*2070mm.

Thanks for your response.

  Hi Cor,

  Apologies for the very delayed response.

  Unfortunately this isn't possible in MaxCut yet (we are currently on version 2.8.1.71).

  I see this as a useful feature and so have logged a feature request for it. You can see that on the link:

  To help us prioritise feature requests please up-vote on it.
