problem with graph

hi, I'm a student, I'm using openLCA for my thesis.
I have imported NREL, ELCD, and openIOcarbon database and they are enough for my work
I have created an Eco-indicaotr 99 method writing the factor in openLCA, from a demo version of Simapro.
I don't understand why in some case, when i analyze a process, for example OSB fabrication from the NREL database, in the graph section i can see only the contribution of the whole process OSB production, instead the amout of each single process that contribute to create the OSB.
Can anyone help me?
Thank you

Hi , with graph section you are referring to the the “top x” graph section? Here only the contributions to the selected LCIA method are shown; if flows from a process are not linked to an LICA method then you will not see these processes. So my guess is that the copied/adapted EI99 method is not correct. Could you check this? Sheet LCIA factors in the LCIA method -> here the flows with their characterisation factors need to be specified.
Hth,
