- Fold instructions.
- Folding drawings.
- Which parts need powder coating.
- Powder colour.
- Finish level.
- Quantity.
- Whether any customer notes affect production.
If Secondary Process details are missing #
Check:
- Quote & Cut Advanced was active when the order was placed.
- Secondary Processes were enabled and configured.
- The customer selected the process before calculating.
- The quote was recalculated after selecting Secondary Processes.
- The customer added the calculated quote to the cart.

Important production note #
Secondary Process details should be reviewed alongside the customer’s DXF files and any uploaded drawings.
Do not rely on colour names, fold counts, or notes alone where a drawing is required for production.
