Good day @VincentRobinson , You can get to the tool from the 'Parcel Records Workflows' tab. This tab will become active when you have a parcel fabric in the map.

Good day @LTWDGIS , I'm curious, Are the legal descriptions ya'll process describing land? Why wouldn't the parcel fabric be used for this purpose? The ArcGIS Parcel Fabric is not only for Tax Parcels, but for any type of land. What is the type of information you are mapping using legal descriptions? Leases? Easements? Fee Simple?

Good day Parcel Aficionados, With the release of ArcGIS Pro 3.5, the parcel fabric team has introduced the COGO Reader Tool. COGO Reader is a new tool designed to assist editors that enter metes and bounds to describe land boundaries. Here is a short video of Jason Camerano demonstrating the advantages this tool can provide when entering deeds. https://link.esri.com/ParcelFabric/COGOReader Enjoy Dan Stone

Greeting Parcel Fabric Aficionados, It is hard to believe that we are coming to the end of 2023. 2023 has been a full year with the release of ArcGIS Pro 3.1 in February and ArcGIS Pro 3.2 released in November. ArcGIS Pro 3.1 brought us enhancements to the Parcel Fabric Record's HUD, and the ability to generate title maps for selected parcels. ArcGIS Pro 3.2 brought us the ability to use link charts for parcel lineage depiction and offline parcel fabrics. The features, functionality, and enhancements are suggested and created for you. How are we doing? Here is your chance to let the parcel fabric team know what you like, dislike, and hope to see in future releases. Please take a few minutes to complete this survey. 2023 ArcGIS Parcel Fabric End of Year Survey I've added a few extra questions this year. I appreciate and value your time, it should only take a few minutes to complete. I've left several questions as open text so you can feel free to provide as much feedback as you'd like. From all of us on the ArcGIS Parcel Fabric team, we wish you well as we end this year and look forward to 2024. Happy Holidays! The ArcGIS Parcel Fabric Team

Recently some users have reported incompatibility between annotation created in ArcGIS Pro 2.x and ArcGIS Pro 3.x. This document explains what is supported at the different releases of ArcGIS. Compatibility of Annotation between ArcGIS Pro 2.x and 3.x Those that are maintaining annotation should be aware of the incompatibility between ArcGIS Pro 2.x and ArcGIS Pro 3.x. Note that this is true for both standard and feature-linked annotation. Annotation is a feature, stored within an annotation feature class within the Geodatabase. As with other feature classes, an annotation feature class stores the geographic location and attributes. Beginning with ArcGIS Pro 3.0, the storage of annotation has been modified to support the full cartographic model of ArcGIS Pro. If you are maintaining an ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9.1 and have upgraded to ArcGIS Pro 3.0.x, or 3.1.x, you will be able to edit the annotation created with ArcGIS Pro 2.x. Newer properties of the ArcGIS Pro 3.x annotation are relatively minor and will be downgraded to the ArcGIS Pro 2.x version when written to the geodatabase. Once Upgraded, you cannot go back. Once the annotation feature class that was created in ArcGIS Pro 2.x is upgraded to ArcGIS Pro 3.x, it will no longer be compatible with Pre-3.0 version of ArcGIS Pro. Once upgraded, the annotation feature class is no longer usable in previous versions. Feature classes linked to the annotation are read-only in previous versions. Feature classes in the same feature dataset as the upgraded annotation are also read-only in previous versions. Refer to the annotation compatibility table in the documentation to understand the different versions of annotation. In Summary If you have users that will continue to use, access, and edit annotation created with ArcGIS pro 2.x, you can continue to publish from ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9.1, 11.0, or 11.1 while accessing it from ArcGIS Pro 3.x. However, once the annotation is upgraded (using the Upgrade Dataset Tool), it will no longer be available for use in previous versions.

Hi Brandon, I understand and can relate. You have to have Enterprise in order to publish the fabric. This is because we need to establish an identity. An identity establishes who you are (same as a login into an Enterprise Geodatabase), What you can do (View, edit, analyze, create, share), what apps you have permission to (Field Apps, Dashboards, Storymaps) and additional capabilities such as editing a parcel fabric (Parcel Fabric user type extension). This does not have to be on separate machines, although it is recommended for performance purposes. I run Enterprise on my Laptop. That includes the web adaptors, Portal, Data Stores, and ArcGIS Server. I also have SQLServer running on my laptop. I'm not a production shop, but I have multiple fabrics published, one with over 1 million parcels. As I stated above, we plan to release the parcel fabric on ArcGIS Online. For your given scenario of about 2K parcels, this may be a good solution. I know if does not help you now, but hopefully by this time next year. Dan Stone ArcGIS Parcel Fabric Product Manager

Hi Brandon, The latest evolution of the parcel fabric provides a comprehensive framework for managing, editing, and sharing parcel data in both a multiuser (ArcGIS Enterprise) and single-user environment. You are correct, in a multi-editor environment you must publish the parcel fabric as a feature service through ArcGIS Enterprise. Why did we do this? Several reasons. In previous versions of the Parcel Fabric, if you wanted to share your land records data you had to export it in order to publish and make available to public facing web applications and apps, like dashboards. Having the parcel fabric as a service gives us the ability to feed these applications without the ETL processes of exporting and publishing. The data is always live to feed these apps and support additional devices like tablets, smart phones, and web applications. Since the ArcGIS Parcel Fabric is a web service, it now has the ability to integrate with other applications through a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA). This makes integration with third party systems, like recording, valuation , lease management software much easier. The capability exists for these system to create records, or merge parcels by calling the REST API. Using a feature service, also allows us to take advantage of Branch versioning. Branch versioning allows us to take traditional editing workflows and push them into a web services environment. Esri has placed a large focus on reengineering ArcGIS to be a service-based platform to support the web approach. I don't think it is a secret that on the ArcGIS Parcel Fabric Roadmap is the ability to support the ArcGIS Parcel Fabric within ArcGIS Online. There are capabilities that ArcGIS Online does not currently support that will limit initial releases, so it may not be a fit for all organizations, and ArcGIS Enterprise will still be the preferred platform. I appreciate your feedback and understand change is sometimes difficult. Hope this helps Dan Stone ArcGIS Parcel Fabric Product Manager

Hi Jason, I was able to successfully clip a donut hole out of a larger parcel. I created a record Added a "Connection Line" from the corner of the outer boundary to the corner of the new parcel. Selected clip Took remainder and was successful I was using 3.1.1 to perform this edit.

Hi Matt, Not sure about the logic in your 1st version. I'd have to test it. In your 2nd version, if it is a seed, the logic immediately exits and returns seed. It should never execute the other else if statements. I don't have your data to try, but this logic should work as well: If ($feature.IsSeed!=1) { if ($feature.ERROR_ACRES > ( $feature.StatedArea * 0.1)) || ($feature.ERROR_ACRES < ( $feature.StatedArea * -0.1)) { return "Check acreage error"; } else if ($feature.ERROR_ACRES < ( $feature.StatedArea * 0.1)) || ($feature.ERROR_ACRES > ( $feature.StatedArea * -0.1)) { return "Parcel"; } else{ return "Seed"; }

As we come to the end of another year it is hard to believe that the ArcGIS Parcel Fabric is going on three years old. The capabilities provided by the parcel fabric are purposed to help you maintain a system of record of the rights, restrictions, and responsibilities of land. What are we getting right? What are we getting wrong? Here is your chance to tell us. Please take a few minutes to answer this brief End of Year Survey ( https://arcg.is/04ifa9 ) Here is wishing you and yours a very happy, and safe holiday season. The ArcGIS Parcel Fabric Team

Good day Parcel Aficionados, An Insider article from June 10th, 2016 titled "Web GIS, Simply", the author asks the question: "What is Web GIS?" The author provide this answer: "Simply put, Web GIS is a pattern, or architectural approach, for implementing a modern GIS. It’s powered by web services—standard services that deliver data and capabilities, and connect components." The ArcGIS Parcel Fabric utilizes standard web services that deliver data and capabilities through the parcel fabric service. Today, ArcGIS Pro uses these services and capabilities to manage land records for many of our clients. Looking to the future, we envision these same capabilities provided through a web browser. Please help us define the requirements and your expectations of editing through a web app by taking a few minutes to respond to this survey.

There is a defect fix for the ArcGIS Parcel Fabric included in this release. This includes: BUG-000142487 - Topological integrity breaks when a feature service feature is moved. This has been fixed at 2.8.3. If you are experiencing errors when making topological edits to a parcel fabric feature service feature (point, line or polygon) in the ArcGIS Parcel Fabric, install ArcGIS 2.8.3. You must have ArcGIS Pro 2.8 installed prior to installing this patch. The Issues Addressed List can be found at: https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/get-started/release-notes.htm If you experience problems after installing this patch, please log a case with technical support. As always, we welcome ideas, enhancements and suggestions on our ArcGIS Parcel Fabric Ideas place. The Parcel Fabric Team.

Greetings Parcel Fabric Community! ArcGIS Pro 2.8.2 was made available on August 5, 2021. There were several defect fixes for the ArcGIS Parcel Fabric included in this release. These include: BUG-000137947 - An imported ArcMap traverse that is a non-loop cannot have a closing location set if the traverse is being digitized and the desired closing location has a mis-close Distance smaller than 0.01 meters. BUG-000140067- The Activate Record of Selected Feature is grayed out in ArcGIS Pro 2.8 BUG-000141258 - ERROR 001487: Failed to update the published service with the server-side data location Additional Information: BUG-000141258 Failure when Publishing a Parcel Fabric to ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9, was found when the Upgrade Dataset geoprocessing tool was used on a parcel fabric to upgrade the parcel fabric to a version 4 parcel fabric using ArcGIS Pro 2.8 or 2.8.1. Note the Upgrade Dataset geoprocessing tool can be used on a parcel fabric in a file geodatabase and copied into an enterprise database or run on parcel fabric that is already in an enterprise database. If the Upgrade Dataset geoprocessing tool was run in ArcGIS Pro 2.8 or 2.8.1, the parcel fabric will not publish and fails with, ERROR 001487: Failed to update the published service with the server-side data location and ERROR 001369: Failed to create the service. This has been fixed at 2.8.2. If you are experiencing these errors when trying to publish, after upgrading the parcel fabric using ArcGIS Pro 2.8 or 2.8.1, install 2.8.2. Once 2.8.2 is installed run the Upgrade Dataset geoprocessing tool on the parcel fabric again. This will correct the parcel fabric and you will then be able to publish. If you have not upgraded the parcel fabric to version 4 and you are using ArcGIS Pro 2.8 or 2.8.1, please install 2.8.2 and then use the Upgrade Dataset geoprocessing tool on the parcel fabric to upgrade the parcel fabric to version 4. If you experience problems after installing this patch, please log a case with technical support. As always, we welcome ideas, enhancements and suggestions on our ArcGIS Parcel Fabric Ideas place.
