Create Baseline Building for ASHRAE 90.1-2013 PRM

Has anyone had any luck in using the Create Baseline Building measure? I am trying to run it on a random (proposed) building and am receiving hundreds of Warnings about all kinds of things not being found, though the measure does run to completion. Most warnings are of the following type:

Warning: Space type properties lookup failed: {"template"=>"90.1-2013","building_type"=>nil,"space_type"=>nil}

I am (randomly) selecting a SmallOffice in climate zone 2A when the measure first starts up, just to select something. When the measure is done, new AirLoopHVACs have appeared, and some Schedules have been added, but constructions and loads appear to be untouched?

I suspect the proposed building has to be set up in a particular way for this measure to work properly? I was trying to find openstudio-standards documentation to find out what that set-up might need to be, but no luck thus far.
