Manually geoprocessing and model geoprocessing having different output

GISAdministrator8 — Tue, 08 Aug 2023 14:05:09 GMT

I'm trying to create a simple model that first selects flood alert areas by area then exports the selection as a feature class:

The result however is missing all attributes:

It should look like this:

which is the output if you were to do it manually instead: select by location>right click layer>data>export features

so it uses the same geoprocessing tools (Select by Location and Feature Class To Feature Class) but the ModelBuilder version is producing data without all the attributes.

Here's the issue right here, tool is deprecated and to make it work as you want, you have to use the field mapping bit to manage your output fields which is different from how the other tool works unfortunately.

Instead, use the CopyFeatures tool:

Thanks, i have also worked around the issue by first doing it manually and then dragging the tools in the geoprocessing history into the model-builder

There are always multiple ways to do things - are you using an older version of Pro?
