Answer:
We do not have possibility to report macro fields, but these fields are saved for rebars as user-defined attributes. So you can get these to rebar reports with the following value field definitions:
  • GetValue("USERDEFINED.type")
  • GetValue("USERDEFINED.art_number")
  • GetValue("USERDEFINED.fabricator")
  • GetValue("USERDEFINED.WEIGHT_PER_UNIT")

These attributes are not available in Template Editor, but you just have to type them into the Select attribute [REBAR] dialog box.
