Have a look here:

   

If you use the [DEP ARR] button on the CDU, and select the DEP, RWY then SID it will appear as shown above.

In my example, the last Fix of the SID went into the  "TO" slot at 4RSK on page 1 of ACT FPLN.

If there is no SID available and you just select the Rwy using [DEP ARR], you will get Via DIRECT To "the Rwy selected" (eg at EGHI no SID's listed so just pick the Rwy eg.02).

Please avoid posting the same question in two places at the same time. You got a good answer twice now. 

Generally speaking, you should post the questions at the website where you also bought your copy of the plane. That helps keeping the support local and fast.
