If I understand you, if you are using a Python script to gather data, of course, you can exclude any properties you don't want. Just use a python filter, to filter the data to whatever you want. There are many instructional videos on YouTube on this subject.

Neither the Python API or the C++ API have any ability to address or modify the interactive schedules. This appears to be a Graphisoft Philosophy. -- Don't know why??

 

You could use a Python script to directly gather the element attributes and place them in a excel spreadsheet. Python scripts have that ability.

 

But a better approach may be to just export the schedule to excel and delete or ignore the properties you don't need. OR directly modify the schedule criteria.
