When saving make sure you have the correct options turned on. One is World and the other is current WCS.

not seeing any options at export, i have the part cplane tplane and wcs set to the appropriate setting before verifying,i think i have narrowed it down to an old plane i was toolpathing on, looks like the zero point coincides with the zero of that plane.i have changed or deleted all toolpaths referencing that plane,but it wont let me delete that plane from the list.so the stock keeps displaying from that corner,tried RAM saver and re-saving file as different name ,no luck

Check the stock set up tab under files at the top of the ops manager. Make sure it is set to TOP before you run the verify.

Same here but I have been bit enough times now I always check! I don't know how it changes (probably through the Planes Manager) but it does seem to have a mind of its own to a certain extent.
