Depends what it is you're planning to do with the poses. If the positions are just for your own use, and you've plenty of disk space, you could save each posed character as a character. This saves the BODY position as well as everything else. The trans settings are saved. If you're planning to sell or give away the poses, you'll need to save as poses. Then, as mentioned already by karen1573, you'll lose the BODY translations, but you will keep the hip translations. That's automatic. A word of caution about using the blank cr2s for poses. Daz is sometimes careless. Take M3 for example. The morphable figure loads with hip and BODY zeroed in 3D space. The blank loads with the hip at 0,0,0, but the BODY is at minus 0.010 in the Y plane (ie his feet are below ground level). If you reposition the blank version to ground level using his hip, all your poses will be a few 'inches' higher than you expect when you subsequently apply them to a newly loaded character. Obviously not what you want when accuracy is vital.
