Cutlist management is available in DBSolidEdge R14 by checking the option Environment → Cutlists → 
Save Cut List as Distinct Records
Cutlist management is based on the Solid Edge Frame members concept and it is applied to asm documents at first hierarchical level.
Important notes:
•only Part Document type is available (Frame components are based on Part Files)
•Property → Field association list is available. By default, LENGTH (runtime value) and MATERIAL (related to base part) properties are always computed and stored for each cut-list item. It is possible to specify additional items in the association list (with the exception of LENGTH and FILE_NAME, managed internally) with reference to existing custom properties of related base part document
•the Options Never create child records for Sheet Metal Parts and Override Base Parts BOM quantity with Cut-List Items BOM quantity are not available in SE
•the Option "Never create child records for cut list items marked as 'NO_BOM'" is not available now, due to SE ST5 Api limitations
At Frame command level (SE asm environment: Tools → Frame), DBSE is integrated at FSB to select Frame components:
At database level, saving the asm with Frame components, new records are created combining frame of same cutlength (one record for each cutlength) and storing Quantity, Length (mandatory) and Material (if defined) properties.
At drawing level, the BOM Table is able to show the Frame Member components items, to be aligned to SE PartsList table definition.
Known limitations (pending GTAC)
Based on SolidEdge ST5, DBSE cutlist management has the following known limitations:
•Property → Field association list relies on base part document custom properties (see GTAC #1954244: no API to get properties at occurrence instance level)
•using the Solid Edge Frame options Single frame for collinear segments and Single frame for tangential segments the LENGTH property is not well updated (see GTAC #1954136: StructuralFrame::GetSections vs Frame Components management)
