How / Can You Amend Out Of Tolerance Hole Size in 2022.1

Scenario : For a FAIR you measure a part and a hole diameter is found to have measured out of tolerance.
You measure the hole by an alternative method , is a bore micrometer and find it falls within the tolerance range.
in version 2020R1 you are able to amend the measured value so it falls within the tolerance range.

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

Any suggestions going forward as our QM will not accept FAIR with out of tolerance results.

Are we to be stuck using 2020R1 forever??
  • Don’t report the hole size on the CMM (uncheck DF on the reporting tab of the geometric tolerance dialog window).

    If it’s being forced on the report because a material modifier is present, remove the material modifier. If you don’t trust the CMM’s interpretation of the feature size, then you shouldn’t trust the bonus tolerance received.

    If you need to have the responsible material modifier on the report as a requirement of the FAIR, then you can either (a) hide the report label by right-clicking the report window and selecting the appropriate option, or (b) modify the rule tree of your report template to not show the size label. If you need further help with option (b), let me know. I believe you can set it to only hide the size label if it’s found OOT, but I haven’t been in there for a while.
  • I dont have 2022 but, I was wondering if you were amending your measured value
    by changing the nominal and saying yes to "Update measured value"... then changing it back to the correct nominal and saying no to "Update measured value:?
  • 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/
    F5 =GENERIC/CIRCLE,DEPENDENT,CARTESIAN,OUT,$
    NOM/XYZ,<CIR_62.TX,CIR_62.TY,CIR_62.TZ>,$
    MEAS/XYZ,<CIR_62.X,CIR_62.Y,CIR_62.Z>,$

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