I am trying to organise a door schedule to include interactive fire rating for each door without having to input the rating manually.I have checked the 'show fire rating' box under door settings and the marker text and custom text under scheme settings in the schedule but without success.The sceen shot shows the layout I would like to achieve.

I don't quite understand this.
How do you want to show the fire rating if you do not enter it manually? Doors do not know by themselves their own fire rating.
You have to go to their parameters and set the Fire Rating parameter under the Parameters for Listing group to the desired values.

By the way, the PDF you uploaded is zero kilobytes.

The fire rating (in this case 30 minutes) appears on the floor plan next to the door (D1) which is fine,however I would like the rating to be linked to the door schedule under a separate heading without having to input the details a second time.

Hi Ralphy,

If you have added the fire rating to the listing section of the door (as the first image attached), then you can add that same parameter to the schedule (see second image).

Even if you haven't, you can easily and quickly edit this parameter within the schedule itself to select the correct rating for each door. (See third image).

Hope that helps.

Second image - Select 'additional parameters', then navigate to the door you are using, then select 'gs_list_firerating' from the long list of available parameters.

'Add' this, then press OK for it to be added to your schedule.

You can adjust the parameters from within the schedule, and it will adjust the parameters in the door at the same time. One of the most powerful features!
