how to update the UniqueID for each subtype

santhoshp — Wed, 09 Nov 2016 18:49:50 GMT

Dear Friends,

I have numbers feature class and subtypes.

Each subtype have separate Asset Code Range in excel sheet attached here.

Starting the FloorID is second Level below ground floor(B2) up to Sixth Floor(F6).

Floor ID_Domain Code in below.

B2-B1-GF-BM-F1-F2-F3-F4-F5-F6-UR

Example : See In How to give the UniqueID For Each Subtype excel sheet.

Thanks

Hi Sathosh,

I'm having a little trouble understanding if you are trying to create a new unique id for the unique combination of the four fields (subtypcd, floor_id_code, floor_id_full_name, asset_id), or if you are trying to create the field ASSET_ID based on the unique combination of the other three.

Can you make it a bit clearer on what data you currently have, and what field you are trying to populate? I'm thinking others might be confused too, and that may be why you haven't received any responses yet.

it would also help to know if this is a feature class in a FGDB or a SQL or Oracle database, or other. It might not matter, but would not hurt to include that info. Also, are you trying to automate this with Python code, Model builder, Field-calculator or a different process.

If you have already tried some code in python or some other method, it would also help if you say what you have tried to give others a starting point. This might prompt more responses.

The attribute assistant add-in has a method with which you can do this: Generate ID ( All methods - Attribute Assistant | ArcGIS Solutions ) You need to set up a sequence table ( Configure GenerateID table - Attribute Assistant | ArcGIS Solutions ). In your case you'd need to trigger it with an IIF statement or series of IIF statements. If your data is in a versioned enterprise geodatabase, the deployment of this method can be a little tricky.

Hello Santhosh

Just as a FYI, We just ran across a similar thing on a support case and I wanted to share this as it might help.

Attached is working sample and proof of concept to assist in your own workflows.

- http://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=ac2fd27fadeb4bb0849fce47930093b0

We know a Generate ID method can only have one count per field, Given this, this example uses a Sub-type field, and 3 Separate Id fields each with their own Generate ID Methods. The Sybtype filed is responsible for setting the attribute (1,2,3) in The Sybtype. A series of Field Trigger reads the Subtype value and adds a place holder value in the opposing ID fields. The Generate ID running on each ID field will only activate on the Null record and thus count each subtype independently.
