How to avoid Panel getting in the way of PCB cutout for Mid-Mount parts

Hi Team!

I recently ordered a PCB that had a mid-mount USB connector. The PCB was automatically manufactured with a panel (nice!), however that same panel was getting in the way of the mid-mount connector.

How can I ensure, e.g. using board outline, that the routing path will keep the cutout area clear?

Thanks for your help already!
