In a fairly large assembly the total weight didn't seem right and a little digging showed that some of the components were being left out of the mass calculation. I checked that those parts were assigned a material and the properties were correct. It is possible the parts were configured and the individual configurations were missing a material assignment but I didn't go that deeply into it. This was a number of years (and versions) ago but I still don't have 100% trust in the results so I keep my use of that tool to smaller assemblies where errors would be easier to spot.
