Garmin Coach and Tacx

Looking for some help with an issue I've been having with Garmin Coach not registering my workouts as completed when done through the Tacx app.

I've got a cycling plan on my Garmin Coach going. When I do the day's workout through the Tacx app, as opposed to using my Fenix watch, it logs the activity in the Coach tab as having happened, but does not count it as the actual plan workout (doesn't ask me for RPE; no green checkmark beside the activity summary tab; calls it a rest day on my weekly workout summary when the day passes).

Is there a way to have Garmin coach register it as me completing the plan workout without having to start it through my watch (since looking at my watch for metrics is more annoying than having my phone displaying it in front of me the whole time)?

    You could put the watch in front of you, instead (as long as you use an external HRM). Or you could double record the activity.

    Probably not much to do now, with the activity already done. The only thing that could perhaps help (though not very likely), is exporting the Tacx activity from GC Web, and placing the unzipped *.fit file to the folder //GARMIN/NewFiles on the watch.
