Add Geodatabase 'Manage' Tab to the Feature Class and Table Wizards

AlfredBaldenweck

TLDR: Please give us the options present on the "Manage" tab of a table's properties during the table creation process

 

I would really like the ability to add a globalID field to a new table via the standard "right-click-> New-> Table" workflow in Catalog.

Right now, the current order of operations is:

1. Make your table
2. Open its properties to the Manage tab
3. Add GlobalIDs

This is cool for when you decide you need them after the fact, but why isn't it an option in the normal creation dialogue? (A downstream effect of this would be enabling attachments, too)

Similarly, why can't we add the editor tracking fields during creation? Why is this an extra step instead of something we can just toggle while we're already making the table?

Please add the Manage tab as an additional page during the Table and Feature Class creation process.

Thanks for the idea @AlfredBaldenweck 

This is already something that is under consideration by the GDB team. Glad to have user support for the feature!

I encourage users to share their use cases here and let us know what functionality you would love to see on a "Manage" tab added to the Feature Class and Table Wizards.
