Cut Precision at the Material List Level

Problem Context

I'm a user creating batches at a saw location where I combine multiple material lists into a batch to gain material and operational efficiencies. One of the material lists I need to cut requires PET, but the others are +3". I can't do this today in BC Connect.

Idea

Today, a user has to match up material lists with the same desired cut precision, but if the day's work includes material lists with different desired cut precision, the user has to split them into multiple batches which is a material efficiency setback. Let's give the user the ability to set precision per BCML instead of per batch.
