Hi,

I reinstalled openLCA on a new computer, and imported my database. When running a calculation on my project systems I got a different results than I got before. I have the earlier results extracted in excel, and they seem a lot more reasonable.

In the new version, the transport is negative in every process linked, both the transport I have manually created as a flow, and that which is taken from ecoinvent database in the background system. I don't think I have changed anything in the system that could cause this change. Could there be some type of settings causing this? Someone who has had a similar experience?

Thank you,
Elin

Edit: I realized the results differ depending on if I'm using version 2.0.3 and 2.0.4. I attach screenshots showing results in version 2.0.3 (total result ~237 kg co2-eq) and in version 2.0.4 (total result ~157kg co2-eq).

What could cause this difference?

Edit 2: 

I include some screenshots from a specific process that in version 2.0.4 shows minus infinity, but in 2.0.3 gives reasonable results. I am using ecoinvent 3.9.1 (cutoff).

New openLCA 2 has impact directions, probably you will need to update the LCIA method as well (but this should not only afffect transport). If you want, post screenshots here. Thank you.
