    OK, so yes, you do have to specify the PCB Footprint for the parts, for example, a resistor could have a power rating "anywhere" between 1/16W and many watts, there is no chance that they would share the same PCB footprint but, they would likely share the same schematic symbol with different properties. Next issue, connect pins, apart from pins of type Power, need to be uniquely named, you have some duplicate pin names, the schematic symbols are going to need to be corrected to fix this.
