Fulcrum in 4: In-Progress Job Edits, New Materials, PO Workflows, and Nesting Estimates

In this episode of Fulcrum in 4, Launch Manager Mitch LaFrance breaks down the latest updates designed to make your manufacturing workflow more efficient. We’ve expanded the materials database, improved the purchase order workflow, enabled in-progress job edits, and enhanced quote estimates for nested work.

• Materials Database Updates – New material types added, improved grid navigation, and bulk vendor/item association.
• Purchase Order Enhancements – Assign materials to specific jobs, update pricing post-invoice, and print receiving labels with job associations.
• In-Progress Job Edits – Modify BOMs and routings even after a job has started.
• Nesting in Quoting – Upload DXF files to auto-calculate material costs and machine time for faster, more accurate estimates.

These updates are designed to help you maximize shop capacity and streamline daily operations. Watch now to see them in action!
