This field is currently for reference only and will not affect paper calculations. Generally, pre-collated stock will be purchased in sets and priced as per M sets.
To create a pre-collated set, select the Pre-Collated option in System Settings, enter the Estimating Unit Cost as a Price per M sets, and as a suggestion, use the description line to indicate the number of parts per set for easy reference.
In all cases, however, the Pre-Collated option on the sheet material screen is simply a reminder that the item is a set. It will serve no other function.
The key to using Enterprise to correctly calculate sets will be to enter the number of Parts to Print in the field provided on the Layout Tab in Estimating/Order Entry. The system will use this value as a multiplier to determine press impressions.
