Revit MEP How to Create a Lighting Fixture Schedule. A big advantage is the ability to quantify Revit objects in schedules. Knowing exactly what you have in a model at all times and knowing that number is correct, brings a level of confidence that enhances the design. Revit schedules report data that is contained in families.
