Iterative Alignment issue

I have a part I have to do a iterative alignment on but the print only has 3A,1B, & 1C targets. The rotation is just 1 point on the top of the part on a plane lined up to the centerline of a cylinder on the opposite side. The plane is also called out as the B datum for a True position. Documents are controlled so I can't share it but is there anyway to rotate with only 1 target before I tell them they need to fix the print?

Thanks

    you can do an initial iterative alignment however you want. you don't have to limit it to the dtp's the drawing is calling out. the iterative alignment is simply telling the machine where the part is.

    once you've dialed in the iterative alignment, then you can later construct a new alignment using the datum target points.
