How To Amend Measured Hole Size In Version 2022.1

Scenario : You cmm measure a part and a hole diameter is found to be undersize / oversize. For eg for a FAIR you need to show hole size is correct and you have confirmed this with a bore gauge check.
In version 2020R1 you can override the measured value so it falls within the tolerance and you have no out of limit on the report.

We have found that you are unable to do this in the latest version 2022.1.

Any suggestions going forward as our QM will not accept our reports with out of limit results.

Are we forever going to have to stay with the 2020R1 version?

An option could be to have an input box appear if the feature measures o/tol on cmm to input the manually evaluated value. Then, using assignments, pass the location information through a generic circle and use the input value for the size. Something like:

            ASSIGN/DIA_SIZE=CIR_62.D
            IF/CIR_62.D>2.8885 OR CIR_62.D<2.8875
PLAN1        =COMMENT/INPUT,NO,FULL SCREEN=NO,
              Enter diameter size from manual evaluation
              ASSIGN/DIA_SIZE=PLAN1.INPUT
            END_IF/

            NOM/XYZ,<CIR_62.TX,CIR_62.TY,CIR_62.TZ>,$

            NOM/IJK,<CIR_62.TI,CIR_62.TJ,CIR_62.TK>,$

As a work around on a FAIR...this is the way
