Spells Per Day and Bonus Spells

Had a player creating a character for one of my Play-By-Posts using Hero Lab for the Pathfinder Ruleset.

Here's the breakdown:
He is a Level 7 Sorcerer, so according to the PF tables, he should have 6 Spells per day in addition to the 2 bonus spells per day he receives for his first level spells. He has a Ring of Wizardry I which doubles how many times a day he can cast 1st-Level spells. This, if the math is right, should lead to 16 spells per day of Level 1. However, Hero Lab is only showing up that he has 5 Spells per day rather than 6 and that with the 2 bonus spells and the ring, he has 14 total spells per day to cast.

Putting it simply:
HeroLab is not following that which is listed in the official tables. Has anyone else been having this problem and if so how did you remedy it?
 
I added 7 levels of Sorcerer to a blank character, and increased CHA to 20 (which is what would be needed in order to get two bonus 1st level spells).

The character has 5 1st level spells known, 8 spells/day.

I add and equip a ring of wizardry, 1st level, and the character knows 5 1st level spells, 14 castable/day.

A Ring of Wizardry specifically states that it doesn't multiply the bonus spells/day from high attributes, so doubling the base 6 spells/day for 7th level = 12, +2 for high CHA = 14.
 
I am having the same problem. I have a 1st level Half-Orc Inquisitor with a 14 Wisdom and he should have 3 1st level spells known, but is only authorized 2 per HeroLab. works properly in PC-gen though.
 
APG page 41 (table 2-4) - A 1st level inquisitor knows 2 first-level spells.

APG pg. 38 (right-hand column, 1st full paragraph) - "Unlike spells per day, the number of spells an inquisitor knows is not affected by her Wisdom score.
