How to Create Custom holes in PCB Board design

Hi, I have been developing a simple PCB board which contains a PIR sensor, an LDR and some other discrete components along with MSP430G2231. I have done outlines for my board according to its dimension. Now, i would like to cut some part in middle of the board. Is it possible to do this, cos, i have seen some board in which part in middle of the board is cut.

Can anyone help me with this?

Good morning,
I use the board geometry/assembly layer to show the outline of the board panels along with areas to be routed out of the board. For example I have a thermistor on the board and do not want any heat on the board getting to the thermistor so in the mentioned layer I give x,y cords for the fabrication house to route out certain areas.
