For most of the welding process, the desing of the joint is Nonessential . Check ASME IX, QW- 250

As long as the joint is still an AWS pre-qualified weld, you can weld as required in the WPS. If it is outside of the pre-qualified parameters, the weld must be qualified with approved AWS testing (Found in AWS D1.1 / D1.3, etc. if compliance to AWS is required). I believe API compliance criteria is similar.
