I'm not sure what you are asking, but in general every pcb needs a board outline.
A mechanical part outline is not recognized as a board outline so you need to copy/import the outline.

In this case I would use a DXf file to import the outline into the software. This is the most easy way.

If you do not have a DXF you can place the mechanical part on you'r board and then draw the board outline.

Remember, you are placing parts on a pcb, not a pcb on a part.
