Hello, I like to use the DATA/ETP feature along the route to get an ETP between suitable en-route airports. However, this ETP isn't displayed along the route 90% of the time. Somtetimes it does, it don't know how. When it is not displayed, I noticed the ETP location was not displayed on the MCDU as well. ETP location along the route on the MDCU ETP Page, and pseudo-waypoint on the ND should be displayed all the time (see FCOM attached). 

Edit : I investigated a bit a it seems that if the two facilities used in LSK 1L and 3L are along the flight plan route, the ETP Location (LSK 5R) and (ETP) pseudo-waypoint are well displayed on the MCDU and ND respectively. However, if one of the facilities is away from the flight plan track, the system struggles and doesn't display ETP location (LSK 5R) neither the (ETP) pseudo-wayoint on the ND.

Congratulations and encouragements to the team. I encourage you to fix this bug and port the code to the A350. Despite this bug, the overall ETP calculations looks very accurate on this aircraft, so please port this to the A350 which still has a very buggy ETP page.

As I said, somemes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. I flew from FACT to LSZH today and did about 10 ETPs along the route. Only 4 were displayed correctly on the ND with their position in front of the LSK 5R.
