Add a feature to allow for an alternate MFG's hangers

With the change to Mitek, we still have clients that will use Simpson, or want to have both Simpson and Mitek listed. Can we get a feature to list an alternate hanger, ie option 2 or Option 3? Basically a second or third column beside the primary option to cover the alternates.

    I can appreciate the frustration in the distribution chain. This is not unlike the early days of the I-joist market when all manufacturers were fighting for specification. However, in this case Mitek also develops the software for both Sapphire Structure and BC Framer, which makes it a tough sell to get them to put in an alt product conversion table of their competitors product.
