Utility Network a AutoUpdaters

Question

V našem současném světě 10.x významně využíváme ArcFM AutoUpdaters k provádění důležité obchodní logiky (jako mnoho utility).<\/P> Implementujeme UN a nyní zvažujeme, jak tuto logiku nahradit. (Poměrně hodně není zahrnuto v základním balíčku.)<\/P> Na jedné straně se zdá, že ArcFM XI podporuje zpracování editačních událostí na feature services prostřednictvím jejich Server Object Extension -- i když momentálně nevím, jak je to rozšiřitelné.<\/P> Na druhé straně ArcGIS Pro zpřístupňuje Edit Events, podobně jako to dělá ArcMap, které bychom mohli zpracovat, abychom poskytli podobné schopnosti, jaké máme nyní.<\/P> Mám *velký* zájem slyšet názory od ostatních, kteří už touto cestou prošli.<\/P> Děkuji předem za jakoukoli zpětnou vazbu.<\/P> Ed<\/P> <\/P>

We've been on the Electric UN since 2023, but we didn't have a GN to start so ArcFM wasn't an option for us prior to our UN build. You may be unique in how you're employing those auto updaters. Aligning the software to work with UN has been a significant and ongoing process - especially given the consistent upgrade cycles and network management release cycles.

Hi @jennsmith_ElectricUN   Thanks for the feedback.   We're talking with SE now and see that what we're looking for is not yet present.   I'm just wondering what folks who have already gone through a UN implementation have done about this.   I didn't think we were actually "early adopters", but maybe we are.

Hi Ed,

@gis_KIWI4 has mentioned - some network elements such as phase propagation and update subnetwork are handled within the UN itself. We use ArcFM Editor XI and the product team is working to build out new AutoUpdaters pretty consistently. If you have someone in house who is already developing complex updaters then I would imagine some of them can transfer over. I would recommend a solid look/dig into your network categories to see what tracing functions you might be able to leverage with a script. We employ both contingent values and attribute rules to ensure data is populated correctly. I would reach out to the ArcFM Editor XI product team, through your account rep, to see if they've planned for requests similar to yours. I think all of those updaters are programmed in Csharp - so theoretically you can customize however you want.  As far as dirty areas are concerned, you probably just need to validate prior to your updates. If that doesn't resolve the issues, then you might have an error - which needs resolved either through fixing the data or updating UN rules.
