As described in this question:
Can a calculation rule update a record in the same feature class, same field, as the edited record?
For example, if a user edits the common_name for OID1, I want the attribute rule to additionally update the common_name for OID 2. Is this possible?
OID custom_id common_name 1 "Group A" "Name A" 2 "Group A" "Name A" 3 "Group B" "Name B" 4 "Group B" "Name B"
Could functionality be added to attribute rules that would let us update a different feature in the same FC as the edited feature?
(This is not to be confused with making an update to a domain description. We don't always have domains on fields that have common values.)
If this functionality already exists, then maybe the idea should be changed to:
"Prevent infinite loops when attribute rule edits same feature class"
From @JohannesLindner in Can a calculation rule update a record in the same feature class, same field, as the edited record?:
You just have to take precautions against infinite loops (feature 1 updates f2, which in turn updates f1, which then updates f2, etc).
