I have a task that I put together to walk users through creating a shutdown notification. In this process, they create the area that will be affected, then create features to show the valves that will be closed. I would like to be able to take the count of these valves and use it to update a field in the Affected Area feature class. Similarly, I would also like to get the count of intersecting customer points and hydrants and use those to update fields. I can't seem to find a way to accomplish either of these operations using the built-in settings in Task Designer. I know I could probably put together a Python script tool to accomplish this, but is there something I'm just missing here? Tasks can keep track of items created while running the task for selection and verification purposes, so I imagine it wouldn't be too much of a leap to pass the count of those features as a variable.
