For one-way flights, you can see this and use the fare class option to force it "up" into Q class, but that's an annoying waste of time and also impossible to do when you want to book a RT or multi-city on one ticket.
This is what I keep warning people to do before purchasing a broken fare. You shouldn't assume that the broken fare is cheaper. It also limits SDC/SDS options.
