Add posted program path to setup sheet

Add posted program path to setup sheet

Title says it all. This request is not a deal breaker but it eliminates the operator searching for a posted part program. 

 

My scenario - I provide setup sheets for my operators. The first question they say is where is the program?

 

I have to do a workaround by copying the posted path and paste it in the program comment or job description field section of the setup folder. It should go in it's own field (like posted program path). This way it will print out on the setup sheet. But I tend to forget this task. So I am asking development to let the system to do this for me. All the info is there, because we tell the post processor where to post the CNC file. So if the programmer posts the CNC file first, then posts the setup sheet second. Wa La we should be able to print out on the setup sheet the posted directory path for the operator to use. 

 

If this is too much to ask so be it. Just say so. My work around below - Program Comment is the posted part program path.

Thanks for lookin,

HI Greg, I agree that would be a nice option. Maybe you have a different situation than mine, but when I post a program for a certain machine it always goes to the folder for that machine.

Moving to "under review" in advance of separating out the post ideas from the general software requests. This was a batch process. So, this particular idea may still be archived.

I´ll look into it.

 

My only concern is that we do not really know where the corresponding nc file is located.

It would only work for your scenario if you post your program first and then generate the setup sheet, since this information is there (last output folder).
