What to do when you get the 'Custom Fitting created' message with DYKA PVC Binneriolering?

Problem:
When modelling/generating elbow-solutions with the material DYKA PVC Binnenriolering, the elbow's show the 'Custom fitting is created' message.
This results in disfigured elbows (both sides don't seem to connect)
Cause:
A faulty Lookuptable is being used.
Solution:
Within Windows:
- Download the attachment: 'bocht pvc binnenriolering mof pvc 2x45_dyka.csv'
- Save the attachment to the desktop.
- Copy the attachment to the (default) folder: C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\RVT 202X\Lookup Tables\Pipe\
Attention!
This folder is normally hidden and requires write-rights.
Within Revit/Current project:
- Give a RightMouseButton Click on the elbow family
- Click 'Edit Family'
- In the Properties ribbon click 'Family Types'
- Click 'Manage Lookup Tables'
- Click 'Import' and select the correct .csv file 'bocht pvc binnenriolering mof pvc 2x45_dyka.csv' (Attachment)
- Confirm the notification to overwrite the current lookup-table
- Close the 'Manage LookUp Tables' screen with [ OK ]
- At the top of the screen select the Type name 'bocht pvc binnenriolering mof pvc 2x45_dyka'
- Select the correct lookup table name in the section 'Other'
- Save the settings with the [ Apply ] and [ OK ] buttons
- Load the modified family into the project via 'Load into Project' or 'Load into Project and Close', (Top right in the ribbon):
- The modified family does not need to be saved to disk
- Choose to overwrite the existing family and its parameters
- The elbow's in het project will be updatet.
