    02. Appears that cost estimation is not considering some items from the model file, how to resolve this issue?

    Answer:

    This is a problem with your original model file (.emvd file). Check the model, check if the chamber number is correct under all the components' Material tab eg. for a single chamber vessel the chamber numbers should be 1 for all components. Correct the chamber number if you find it is incorrect and rerun the model file and then try creating the cost estimation file from the corrected .emvd file, the problem should be resolved.
