I am using Revit 2015, I try to take off equipment schedule on the project main file that include Architecture Linked files (already created room tags) and MEP Linked files. if I am working on the main Project File, Is it possible to schedule MEP family and show location or Room Name/Number from the Architecture linked files?

When creating a schedule, mark "include elements in links. If you need rooms etc dont forget to add "Room bounding" option for your link.

Hi @Anonymous

Of course it is posible!Smiley Happy Click HERE 

Thank you @Karol_Piroska for the illustration.

When you link models together, by default Revit does not recognize room-bounding elements in the linked model. However, when linking models together, you can make the host model recognize the Room Bounding parameter of elements in the linked model. Click HERE on how to use Room Boundaries in a Linked Model

Checking the 'include elements in links' and choosing the drop down list 'Select available fields fromprovide two parameters:

  • File Name
  • Name (this is a value you can control/change). Please see attached image which shows an example of elements both in the host file and in a linked file.
