Modifying the Detail Component Manager Autocad 2024

I would like to find information on how to modify the Detail Component Manager.  Current code requires R-49 Batt insulation on some roof designs.  The Detail Component Manager under "Thermal & Moisture Protection" includes up to R-38.  I would like to add a new line item for R-49 Batt Insul and display the right thickness.  Can anyone provide infomation on how to do this or perhaps reference a good site for instructions.  Thanks!
