    <title>topic Referencing Existing Geopoints without creating new ones in ArcGIS Survey123 Questions</title>

    <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi, I am working to make an incident report form for irrigation heads. Ideally users would select a point from the existing point layer with irrigation head locations. I'd like the reports to reference the points, so when a report comes in we know where to maintenance, but i do not want submissions to create a new point. Right now my form is able to see my existing points, but submissions create new points. I'd appreciate and guidance or advice. Thanks!&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;-Ryan&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hey&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://community.esri.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/955267"&gt;@RyanMullee&lt;/a&gt;,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Check out the Hydrant Inspection or Manhole Inspection for ideas on how to model your data schema. They both follow a similar idea where irrigation heads are hydrants/manholes in the samples and their repeats are equivalent to incident reports.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;This UC presentation on &lt;A href="https://mediaspace.esri.com/media/t/1_3aw7zdrs" target="_self"&gt;Modeling Inspection Workflows&lt;/A&gt; may also be helpful.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Additionally while the terminology in this &lt;A href="https://support.esri.com/en-us/knowledge-base/how-to-populate-a-related-table-from-an-arcgis-survey12-000021198" target="_self"&gt;Tech Support KB article&lt;/A&gt; is quite dated the concept of the workflow is still relevant and very powerful.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
