NWC Revit Export 2014 - ?Selection Resolution?

Lot of movng part here so I don't know what the issues.  Attached you will see images labeled earlier and later.

Earlier:

Revit MEP model file 2012

Exporeted NWC (can't remember if Selection Resolution was Last or First, one issue)

Search Sets and model federated in Navis 2012 Manage

 

Later:

Updated Newer MEP Revit model file, and also now 2013

Now using Navis 2014 Manage

 

Selection Resolution in Navis is set to First for both!

 

Earlier export object path was 2ND FL - 12 Inch

Lastest export object path is 2ND FL - Mechanical Equipment - VAV Unit - 12 Inch - VAV Unit

 

So now my old Search Set of Item - Type does not work becasue now the label is differnt?

It has added Mechancial Equpment in front of the Type?

 

What could have caused this change?

Exporting Differently, Newer Model, Different Versions of Software, some other operator error??????????

Mechanical Equipment is the category and/or type name , but it seems like something got switched in the earlier export and Tree Structure. The older search bypassed the category or it seems put it further down in the Type name. Maybe that a 2012 and 2014 issue?

Thank you for your post.  I have seen something similar a few other times with search sets from versions prior to 2013 NW.  Users can typically avoid this by recreating the search sets in question; to then update the format/ode needed for communication within the NW software.  I hope this helps some, although i do understand that it will add a little time in reference to overcome the communication issue.  Please keep us posted in the community and let us know how this worked out.  Thank you.

Yes I realize I can recreate them, but is not really a solution nor an answer, and thats a lot of rework for the amont I have in this project.  Why am I having to recreate them and why the sudden change in format and mapping is the real issue?  And if it has happened one time with a explenation or solution who's to say it want happen again say when I go to 2015?
