I am trying to create a locator to lookup parcels. Parcel ids in our system can have two blank spaces in the id (for example: 024--00302 where the hyphens are empty spaces i.e. 024 00302).
When I create a locator for these values, ArcGIS Pro reduces the two spaces to a single space. The search box in Pro and other web applications will allow you to keyin both spaces, and it will find the value with a single space and include it in the suggestions. I can even locate the parcel on the map. However, the fact that it returns the parcel id with a single space causes problems for other downstream processes.
Obviously, I can grab the value in my applications, check for the single space, and fix it programmatically but that doesn't work for everyone else.
Is there a setting to force the locator to honor the multiple spaces?
