Calories from custom workout with external HR not included in daily stats

I have created custom workout for my BJJ session, where I wear HRM pro and let watch download HR data after workout (I leave watch in locker)

Looks like calories burned during session are not included in daily calorie report, e.g. BJJ session burned 883 kcal, but calorie report shows 452 kcal from activity.

How this can be fixed ?

Besides that, downloaded HR data is not filled in Heart Report in Connect app, just like intensity minutes.

In the calorie report the activity calories are not reported. In the calories page you see resting and active calories and the total.

Activity calories is the total of active and resting calories.
Active calories are what you burn while being active excluding resting calories.
Resting calories are what you burn to be alive.

All-day HR, Intensity minutes, Body Battery, Stress, and other Health & Fitness data is being processed and logged by the watch in real-time. It means the watch has to be able to see your HR. If you do now wear the watch, and use an external HRM, connect the HRM to the watch, and keep the watch nearby (the guaranteed range of ANT+ is just 3m, can be perhaps a bit better in real life). HRM-Pro is a bit better in this regard, since it processes some of the data (though far not all of it) internally, and can upload it to Garmin Connect, if you added it to GC as a standalone device.
