So long as your hotlink module contains the ID "RFA" and the actual fills contain the ID "Accessory", then I can't see any reason why this schedule would not work.
Of course if neither of these conditions is true, there will be no info in your schedule.

The 'Element types is not beam segment' and 'Element types is not columns segment' criteria can be deleted.
These were added automatically for compatibility with the new beam and column tools.

I would probably add a criteria to narrow the selection down to just fills though if that is what you are scheduling .... 'Element types is fill'.


However the fields may be the problem.
The 'Hatch Surface Area (Archicad 20)' is a conversion from an old version.
I am not sure if it still supposed to work (I think it is), but now the field is simply 'Area' that can be found in the general section when you add fields.

The other thing is if you just open the schedule, is the information there that then goes missing when you place it on the layout.
That would be a whole other problem.
