FEATURE REQUEST: MV Server Error File Utilization

Currently, MV Server will only generate a file in the Error path if an error is encountered when importing a project.

I would like to see MV Server make use of the same Error path if an error is encountered during WOC/WOP when created via Toolbox, as opposed to when importing a project.

When an end user processes a project, they need to be aware of any errors that are encountered. In it's current state, the only way for an end user to see if an error was encountered when utilizing MV Server for processing is to review the Event Log. This reduces efficiency, which is exactly the opposite of what we were hoping to achieve when initially purchasing the MV Server module.

It feels very shortsighted to not have an error file generated if processing from Toolbox with errors. Especially since the functionality is there for importing an xml file.

An example would be if I had a part that exceeded the size of the applied material.
This results in the error "...[part] is too large to fit on any of the sheet sizes available..."
Which then resolves as "Microvellum Optimizer Received No Sheets."

The issue being currently, MV Server does nothing to tell you this. The WOC/WOP files go from Queue to Archive, regardless of any errors encountered.

In lieu of any files being generated due to errors, unfortunately the MV Server module is not fitting for our needs and we wish this was also documented better so we could have made a more educated decision before initially purchasing.
