Using the Sketch Selection Manager
Rather than drawing sketches manually, the Sketch Selection Manager allows several options from which to begin yourdrawing. This includes being able to modify a copy of a sketch from the database of templates or modify a copy of a sketchlocated on one of your previous records. Here are the drawing options:
Modify a copy of a template includedin our Sketch Database.
When you are ready to begin modifying the sketch, press the Accept button.
Before modifying the sketch, you will first begiven an “Overwrite File” warning message.Verify that you wish to overwrite the currentdrawing by pressing “ ”.OK
Next you will be taken into the drawing programthat is specified in (If you havenot changed this setting, Window Paint Brush isthe default drawing program).You can now make any necessary modificationsto the sketch.

Using the databases of Base Metals, Filler Metals, and Pipe Schedules
The Filler material database offers even morefiltering capabilities. Based on the base materialsand process specified on the record (P1 and P8with GTAW in this example) the database hasoffered two additional filtering buttons. The firstone allows filtering the database to show onlythose filler metals possible to weld with GTAW andP1 while the second button shows only those fillermetals possible to weld with GTAW and P8.
The offers an easy to readmatrix for finding the desired pipe size andschedule. Locate the diameter in the left handcolumn and then move to the right to find theproper schedule.The also offers three differenttables for Carbon steel, Stainless steel, and Tubegauge/thickness.

WeldOffice allows you to specify up to threewelding processes. Additionally, you can alsospecify up to five filler metal sizes for eachprocess. To do this, click inside the “Fillermetal size” field and then locate the AddColumn icon on the Tool Bar at the top ofthe screen. Click this icon and watch howthis field splits with each click. This will alsosplit all other applicable fields allowingspecific data to be entered for each fillermetal size.

4When specifying the filler metal, remember toselect it from the Filler Material Databaseinstead of manually typing the information.To do this, place the cursor in the “SFA” fieldand click on the database icon . Locateand select the desired filler metal(s) and thenpress the Accept button. Notice that
enters the proper SFA,Classification, F and A numbersautomatically.
Multiple filler metal classifications maybe specified. Everything that is selected willappear in the Notes section on page 2.
