Hello,
Currently the parcel fabric name parcel tool only allows integers. Please expand the tool to allow sequential letters such as:
A,B,C,D.
This would be useful for some areas where lots use letters instead of numbers.
Thanks!
This behavior can be configured with the Attribute Assistant Add-in. http://solutions.arcgis.com/shared/help/attribute-assistant/
The Sequential Numbering tool will allow for this in Pro 2.4.
EDIT: I misspoke/typed here. While the Sequential Numbering tool will be released in Pro 2.4, and will be available to use with any dataset (not constrained to be specific to parcels), it is not able to sequence letters as is requested in this idea.

Something similar for point numbering/naming would be pretty helpful as well.
We use sequential numbering on the regular. However, sequential letterings would be extremely useful for us as a company. We currently have many customer who annotate features using lettering (A,B,C,D,Etc) but we unfortunately have to do all of this manually as the feature is not currently in ArcGIS Pro.
Loving the sequential numbering tool BTW
@BrendanMcCann I altered the SequentialNumber script in calcualte field, perhaps this can help.
arcpy.management.CalculateField( in_table="Near Input Features (Points)", field="Text", expression="SequentialLetter()", expression_type="PYTHON3", code_block="""# Calculates a sequential number # More calculator examples at esriurl.com/CalculatorExamples rec=0 do_once = True def SequentialLetter(): global rec global do_once pStart = 1 pInterval = 1 if do_once: do_once = False else: rec = rec + pInterval characters = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ" return characters[rec % len(characters)]""", field_type="TEXT" )
Thanks @JonathanNeal we'll give the above a try. 🙌
...disapponting that this has been "under consideration" for more than 3 years and the thread is almost 10 years old. This functionality would be highly sought after for anyone doing 911 addressing, among other things.
