Creating a Single-Category Schedule

you just added. Only components that have this parameter display in the schedule.
NOTE If you do not specify a filter parameter for the schedule, then all family categories in your
project that can have a shared project parameter will appear in the schedule. See Categories Allowing
Shared Parameters on page 441.

Properties on page 128.

The schedule lists all components with the shared parameter.

To modify a shared parameter, select it and click Edit under Scheduled fields. To add a new parameter,
click Add Parameter. In both cases, the Parameter Properties dialog opens.
Project Parameters
Project parameters are parameters you define and then add to multiple categories of elements in a project.
They are specific to the project and cannot be shared with other projects. You can then use those project
parameters in multi-category or single-category schedules. See
Schedules with Shared Parameters on page
447.
