Parametric Study Material Assignments

I am currently working on a project in ANSYS Workbench with Mechanical. I have imported a Solidworks geometry with parameters and am using a static structural module to simulate a tensile test. I have used named selections to allow parametric studies to be run for different geometries. However, I am receiving the error:

'The Model component in Static Structural for design point 1 requires user input before it can be updated'

The issue is that the assigned materials are being wiped for each design point when the geometry is updated.

How do I ensure that updating the geometry parameters keeps the assigned materials?

Thanks in advance.

there is an option in ansys parametric study where you can check it, then ansys exports every parameter analysis to a separate ansys workbench file, then you can check there if the parameters are transferred correctly or not.
