Learning Objectives
Understand how to
work with
Parameters in
Schedules
Know when and
where to use Key
Schedules
Create an Embedded
Schedule
Know how to use
Conditional
Formatting in
Schedules
If you can model it, you can schedule it. Using schedules in
Autodesk® Revit software is a powerful way of viewing the
information in your Building Information Modeling (BIM)
projects. Most users create basic schedules and have a good
understanding of how to create schedules. What most users do
not know is some of the more powerful features of schedules.
This class will explore some of the lesser-known aspects of
creating schedules, such as creating embedded schedules,
using conditional formatting in schedules, and understanding
key schedules. We will also dive into shared and project
parameters and how to use them in calculated formulas.

Schedules are a vital part of documentation.
Parameters are needed on a project level and an
office wide level.
Custom parameters and Calculated Value
parameters are needed.
Schedules should be used throughout the project
to assist in meeting design requirements.
