CDL Enroute Performance Weight Penalties

Hi everybody,
Just looking for any reference to my daily practice:
As we all are aware, In some CDL performance penalties state:

En route Performance Limiting weight is reduced by XXXX kg

For AIB Flysmart, there is no information about Enroute phase.
So practically I do not rely on FMGES (MCDU) MAX REC ALT or OPT ALT. As a solution I either:
Refer to QRH with an apparent weight equals to Actual weight +XXXX
or
temporarily overwrite Actual ZFW or GW on MCDU as increased by XXXX to see what the recalculated MAX REC ALT or OPT ALT is.

These are my intuitive practical solutions, not written in any technical document though.
Do you have a better idea or any solutions mentioned by any reference (either Boeing Airbus etc.)
Thanks.
