I think what happened was that the fare calculation won't fit into the fare construction box. The fare construction box has a fix length limit for ATB2 tickets. It doesn't matter if some of the segments have been flown, the fare contruction box still must show the complete itinerary.
This is becoming more of a problem now with more and more surcharges and taxes cramed into that box. Yes, it could be manually edited to shrink a little, but just a little. You are stuck if that still won't fit and it must be handwritten.
