I’m turning over rocks seeking help/muse to advance a project I’m working on below. I’ve been scouring GeoNet and Google but having difficulty finding definitive answers on what exactly we can and can’t do with Relationship tables in the Portal Environment.    I’m working on creating a basic inventory management solution (don’t get hung up on the inventory part). I got everything from a technical stand point working but I’m struggling with figuring out what’s possible with relationship tables.   We have a live “job layer” with new features being created from our company datahub that talks to our enterprise GDB. This feature layer then has 2 separate one-to-many relationship tables – “Materials Management Table” and “Material Order Table”       The Material Management table is being auto-populated from scripts that take the values from one of two different feature layers depending factors (“Estimate Layer” or “Sold Layer”) and summarizes the values of hundreds of different features involved with that job into a single row of data in “Material Management Table”       This Material Management table allows the user to click on any job and get a consolidated summary of all the materials that job is going to require.  – This is a big deal       The “Material Oder Table” is setup to allow the user to edit and add new table rows indicating what materials have been ordered for the specific job its related to.   Everything above to this point has been built and works Next Steps – This is where I need some help and musing       Everything works but the workflow a Non-GIS user would need to go through SUCKS. Its raw, ugly, and very hard to visualize the data.       Web Maps in Portal, WAB, and Operations Dashboard seem to be limited to what you can do with features and their related tables. I’m hoping this is where someone might know something I don’t. Currently I’m working through formatting an arcade script to make the pop-up of the feature bring in the related data – Like done in this link - https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-online-blog/show-related-data-or-tables-in-pop-ups-with-arcade-featuresets/ba-p/890530 I did state “Limited” not nothing at all. So I do have some related table widgets/indicators/list that work but it’s not pretty.   I realize ESRI is not intended to be used as a turn-key inventory management solution What we’re trying to do here is pretty basic when it comes to inventory management       How much material does the job need       What’s been ordered       Where does the ordered material need to travel to and where is the material that’s already been delivered. Also as stated in the first sentence of this post -  this work flow is one that you can take the inventory part out of. I still need to get it figured out and make it sexy for the user.       There are several workflows that follow the same logic of working with features and relationship tables that we would like to start on that have nothing to do with inventory management.     Let me know if you have any thoughts or resources you could send my way that would be relevant. I'm currently running Enterprise Version 10.8.0  - Planning to update to 10.8.1 shortly Would love to see some examples of dashboards and/or web-apps that make use of feature layers with related tables.  What's the latest news on being able to filter and/or symbolize features based on related table attributes Workflow examples/solutions to get non-GIS people using GIS tools to work with Feature layers and their related tables that's simple and few as few clicks as possible.   Thanks so much   ...

Our survey department uses Trimble Devices to survey points and create stakeouts and perform basic construction staking. We would love to use Collector and any GNSS receiver preferably EOS Arrow Gold but I'm fine with others.  We are looking for the same user experience we get with easy access to Enterprise data in collector that seamlessly syncs back to our databases in "real time" to be used by others in the office and visa-versa. To my knowledge I don't know of a data collection unit that can provide the functionality of construction staking like you can with Trimble units and have the GIS ESRI data integration experience you get with collector and an EOS unit.     Any suggestions or information of products/workflows to help with this would be greatly appreciated.   ...

I want to be able to capture the amount of time between status changes of a specific attribute. Example if I have a park bench layer with an attribute for condition that has a domain pick list with the following values; good condition, maintenance needed, inspection needed. I want to be able to track the time between when the status gets edited and goes from maintenance needed to good condition. This way I can track how long it took for maintenance to be completed without adding more date capturing attribute fields for the users to complete ( I want this to be automated behind the curtains).   ...

I have created a Portal to Portal Collaboration between our companies enterprise system and a separate companies enterprise system, we are the host. The collaboration was successful and we created a shared workspace with a group that now has lots of content from both sides. My problem/question is that whenever either organization opens content from the other organization it asks us to sign-in to the others portal with a username and password. It was my understanding that with a shared workspace and collaboration that we would not have to create a user in our portals for each other to see and use the shared content.    Looking for any feedback, Thanks ...

I'm admittedly not an expert on this subject. I'm prepping a GIS project where we will be using a n EOS Arrow Gold GNNS receiver to survey points in the town of Sturgis, SD. So far I've only ever done these projects in MN where we use MnCORS GNNS Network. Does anyone know of a similar RTK network to use in Sturgis, SD? Thanks for the help  ... View more
