Good day. I'm finding this to be more difficult than I thought it would be. I would like to create a component that includes a cutout in the PCB. The component is for a twist lock style lamp holder like you see in the back of an car instrument panel. I have created the cutout region in solidworks and exported as a dxf. I can import the polygon on a pcb but cant seem to fill it as a polygon pour cutout. I'm using AD6.6 and don't have access to a newer version. I've added a pdf of the part.

Thanks
 

to create a cutout in PCB you would need to give the router dimension to fabricator.
I Altium you can provide the shape of the cutout in the drill drawing layer and neccessary drill details for that.
Consult your fabricator for all the details it would require.
