Using the S30408 weld evaluation, with a 40-mm-thick welding test plate and submerged arc welding as the welding method, can it be applied to S32168 plates that are 44 mm thick?

I would like to ask some experts about welding process qualification; I’m a beginner； The client mentioned that the existing weld assessment does not cover my work, which involves welding heads using S30408; the weld test pieces are 40 mm thick and the welding method used is submerged arc welding. I was wondering whether this assessment can also be applied to S32168 with 44 mm thick pieces. Both welding wires and fluxes meet the requirements specified in GB/T 47015-2011
I’m a newbie too. This is how I understand it; I’m not sure if it’s correct. This process evaluation can cover it, but the welding wire needs to be changed.
