Workaround: One way to get around this problem is to change the part in the Elevation Parts List, which you can access through the Jobs menu on the main screen. Simply find the part that you want to change, click on that line, then click the Edit button and enter the new part number. Keep in mind that, the next time you process the job, and select Yes to overwrite the calculated file, you will wipe out this change.
Another way to address this is by clicking either the Select Elevations to Edit or the Stop at All to Edit Parts button in the Estimate Processing Options window. This will allow you to change the part number(s) in the framing system parts window. If you do this, the next time you process the job you can select Process w/ Original Parts - No Edit to keep the changes that you made to the system parts.
A final option is to copy the framing system that you are using with the job to an available number (through the Copy Framing Systems option in the Maintenance menu). Then edit the new system that you copied to, and change the part numbers for the vertical material to suit you needs for the given elevation. If you choose this method, you would not have to stop to edit parts while processing since you changed the parts before hand.

Workaround - If it is necessary to have the entire Sill in an elevation Alternate Material, you are better off copying the framing system that you are using to a new number, and then change the metal width and part numbers for the non-standard sill material. Then, use this new framing system in the elevations that require this different sill material.

Workaround - If this is an elevation that has the transom above all panels -- ex. a 3 panel opening with a transom across all three panels -- you can change the Door Type in the framing system to "Interrupted by Verticals" in order to optimize correctly. Remember, that making a change to the Framing System Maintenance window after a job has been created, will require you to re-edit the elevations in your job that use that framing system.

Workaround - There is no real workaround for the problem. You should still be able to bid a close price for estimating purposes. Keep in mind, however, that minimum glass charges may be the exception here. If you want to use the Glass Report for ordering glass, you will need to Delete the single transom glass record(s), and manually add the split transom glass pieces. Keep in mind that when you re-process a job, the calculated glass will be added back in, and the manually added glass will remain unchanged.

Workaround - You will need to delete the elevation that you removed a split from, and then re-enter it, if you don't want this split material to be added into the optimization of the job. Otherwise, the material for the split will be calculated into the final parts report and included in cut list.

Workaround - You will need to edit the framing system and take out the check mark in the Random box under the Sill Can field. After taking out this check, reprocess the job and the Sill Can part will show up on the cut list.
