[2009] Missing System Parameters in Schedules (OPEN)

[mjdanowski]

Why can we not use all system parameters within a family in a schedule?

I am setting up my transformer schedule, and I would love to be able to add two schedule columns for Secondary Distribution System and for Primary Distribution System (Distribution System Types) parameters, but I do not have the option.

It kills me when I have to do that because now I have to add "dumb" shared parameters to complete my schedules, and these things are always going to be coordination bottlenecks.

Let us properly schedule the "smart" parameters of all families!

You should be able to click 'Edit' for each project parameter when on the fields tab in the schedule properties. Then in the bottom left corner check the box called 'Add to all elements in the selected categories', then you can select the category you want to see it in. This will 'push' that parameter out to each family of the selected category, allowing you to now use those previously 'dead' cells on the schedule.

I hope this helps!
