    Report Component Formulas for Quantify Reports

    Product(s): OpenBuildings CONNECT Edition 
    Environment: CONNECT Edition 
    Area: Dataset and Content

    Problem Description

    There are no quantities listed in the Quantify report when opened in Excel.

    Steps to Resolve

    In order to see data in a quantify report for a model, the elements in the file must include a Report Component Formula in their Part definitions.  Otherwise, the report will be empty.  You should see a column in the Excel file for Quantity and Unit or other values that are entered into the Report Component.  Check in the Parts View tab for Report Components for each Part. If the Formula column is blank, then this is the reason that there are no quantities reported in the Excel file Quantify Report.

    Make sure that all the Elements you want reported on have Parts assigned.  All Parts to be reported on require a Report Component Formula assigned.
    1.  Open Dataset Exporer, Parts View-Report Components
    2.  Navigate to the parts to be Reported. Click in the Formula field.
    3.  This will launch the Report Component dialog box.
    4.  Click the New Report Component button
    5.  Click in Family - accept any (this will populate the Family and Name/Description)
    6.  Click under Formula
    7.  Select the Formula button (volume).
    8.  Hit Apply, hit Ok.
    9.  In Dataset Explorer, click Dataset - Commit Changes, and close.
    10. Answer Yes to "Do you want to commit your changes to the Dataset?" dialog, if encountered.

    The 'specified part name' would actually be the Section Name in the Column Layout Title field.
    Physically select all the Elements you want reported on, and generate your Report.
