Check in viewer where these elements are and go back to the property module and assign section properties to those elements.

when I make the tool as the rigid body I do the reference point, and also the inertia
and when i submit job i have an error assinged section missed or missing property, and I audited the material and other inputs, so I believe we must select the section for the tool but it's rigid body, i can't associate section for rigid body.
please help me give me the list of the operations to do step by step please
