Schedule count does not total the correct nunmber.

We use a parking stall that can hold 2 bikes. So in the schedule I want it to count this family twice. I added some new project parameters (number based) so in the properties I can apply a value of two to this family and a value of one to the other single bike storage stalls.

The schedule displays the correct quantity, however the schedule count total is wrong and only counts the family as 1.

Have I created the wrong project parameter ? Or is there a way to create a calculated parameter that will multiply this this stall by 2 and will total correctly in the count total ? 

 

Thanks

  1. Sort by Family
  2. Format the new integer parameter to calculate totals
  3. Use the integer parameter instead of the Count parameter

Don't use the built-in Count.  Use the back to Back parameter and format it to Calculate Totals.
