Abhishek,

Yes, this is normal: DMF is not yet available in R.E.DD.B.
Use R.E.D.
http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/RED/ to derive RESP charges
for DMF & please submit DMF in R.E.DD.B.
If you prefer I can do it for you, it is going to take 10 sec with R.E.D.
However, doing it by yourself would be a good exercice. Just let me know.
See Urea for another typical example (similar to what you need to do):
