Some stock attributes can be set to populate by default whenever a new stock is created.  This should make adding new stocks easier while maintaining consistency in their setup.


Cutting charges are calculated by the number of sheets that can fit in your cutter (Lift Size) and the Cut Price. These settings are specific to each stock in your system. 


By default Cut Cost is set at 0.25, Cut Price is 0.50 and Lift Size is set at 500 sheets.

Adjustments to these defaults can be made by navigating to Settings > Dockets > Stock.


If you are unsure of stock Lift Sizes a good starting point would be 500 sheets for text and 200 for cover weights.
