Question: How do I call custom made user-defined attributes (UDA) in my reports and drawing templates?

Answer: To call any UDA inside reports or drawing templates, you need to add the keyword USERDEFINED in front of the attribute name and add the Dot (.) after this keyword. Then, add the UDA name. 

For example: GetValue("USERDEFINED.UDA_NAME")
