Modeling WSHP w/DOAS on Parametric Analysis Tool

I'm using the "Replace HVAC with WSHP and DOAS" OpenStudio measure within Parametric Analysis tool with the default inputs as shown below.

Building run file that shows all default inputs image description

However, the measure does not take place because "User did not pick any zones to be added to WSHP system..." image description

I'm wondering whether anyone else has tried to implement the "Replace HVAC with WSHP and DOAS" measure in Parametric Analysis Tool and whether they ran into the same issue? How do I even go about picking a zone in the first place? Where can I find a list of acceptable zones? How can I implement the aforementioned into Parametric Analysis Tool? By the way, I'm modeling based off of ResStock's projectsinglefamily_detached.
