I have polygon shapefile A and polygon shapefile B, and I need to cut holes in shapefile A polygons using polygons from shapefile B. Is there a way to explcitly set the hole cutting to occur on shapefile A only?

Or just the Clipper with shapefile B as Clipper feature and shapefile A as Clippee

Have you tried the donut builder ? And then extracting the holes out of the formed donuts?

Yes, thank you, I tried donut builder and got unexpected results. Thank you for the suggestion about Clipper. I forgot that it makes holes! It works just fine.
