In ArcMap the user can choose the field type of "Integer" and input any number and also commas and decimals. In ArcGIS Online you are not able to input anything other than whole numbers with commas (if needed) but you are not able to put in a decimal. This hinders the user by not allowing them to put in specific numbers into the integer field. Instead the user has to choose string text field type and when trying to integrate the online map into another program the field type may need to be integer in order to function properly. This causes problems in the compatibility. If there is something offered in ArcMap then it should be available in ArcGIS Online to allow users to interact with the map without having to send an .mxd back and forth. ... View more

ArcGIS Online is a global mapping service but does not offer dynamically updated shape lengths of lines. For this project we have sewer lines between manholes and when I publish the map from ArcMap to ArcGIS Online the units (even if I have changed the WGS1984 coordinate system to show units in feet in ArcMap) will show in meters on ArcGIS Online. You can create a new field and input a formula to convert but this field does not update real time and has to be done manually. If this is truly a global service then the user should have the ability to use units other than meters. ... View more
