Thanks Nick, I haven't considered that but I will definitely keep that in mind. I tried the set of scripts that you sent me last time and for some reason, when I tested it, I didn't quite get what I was looking for. It didn't change the symbology when it was ran but I think I might have a solution that might allow me to combine parts of the scripts that were posted and see if I can manipulate the script so that only certain symbologies will be drawn so long as the certain conditions remain true. The one you sent about the due dates I think I can reconfigure to set certain boundaries without trying to run to many if then expressions. I will let you know if it works or not. The one you posted the first time worked really well and I think I can build on it and perhaps be able to define the criteria and have it symbolized accordingly. I will post on here if I run into any troubles or if I manage to get the scripts working. Here is the script that you sent me the first time that worked when I tested it. var Edited = Date($feature.EditDate); if(DateDiff(Now(), Edited, 'hours')<=2){   var Status = 'New'; } else if(DateDiff(Today(), Edited, 'days')>=0){   var Status = 'Old'; } else {   var Status = 'Current' } return Status So I think this script and parts of the other scripts might be enough for me to run multiple tests and see which other set of scripts should work. I think if I try to combine too many if else-if scenarios then either too many conditions might end up being met or too little. I will let you know if I manage to get it to work. Thanks for all your help. ... View more

Ok. I wasn't sure how the expressions would work if given those conditions. I guess it mostly has to do with my understanding of how the scripting would work. I thought about it some more this morning and realized the reason that I wasn't able to see anything when I changed the symbology using the scripts; I realized it was on the feature service that we haven't deployed yet but will hopefully get it deployed soon. I tried testing it and I didn't see the changes that I was looking for but then I realized I didn't leave the edits long enough to see any other changes. I'm going to try this again with the scripts but leave it overnight or two to allow the scripts to work. Thanks for your help. If I find something or some way that would account for time zone changes then I'll let you know. That could be something that could be looked into. Perhaps even something to account for daylight savings as well. ... View more

Oh ok. I was trying to set up the scenario so that anything under two hours would be symbolized as one color but the thing that I want sure I'd is if I wanted to stumble a statement similar to one below: Now() < x < EditDate I was looking to see if I could write a script so that the symbology would change for the in between condition while preserving the other conditions. I just don't want to write the script that ends up satisfying two arguments. If there is a way to achieve this without creating separate conditions that might be satisfied that either leaves a gap or overlaps because I'm not sure if there is or not. I'm looking to satisfy one set of conditions without overlapping or leaving a gap. Amy idea would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Robert ... View more

I tried using this script below but I cannot say for certain where I am going wrong. I tried modifying the script that you sent me earlier, but it only return two of the values. I will keep trying but if you manage to figure it out would you mind letting me know so I can work through and see where I was making mistakes. var Edited = Date($feature.EDITDATE); if(DateDiff(Edited, Now(), Hour(Now()-Edited<2))){ var Status = 'In Progress'; } else if(DateDiff(Today(), Edited, (Hour(Now())-Hour(Edited)>1<8))){ var status = 'Current'; } else if(DateDiff(Year(Edited), Year(Now()), 'years')<=1){ var status = 'Completed'; } else { (DateDiff(Year(Edited), Year(Now()), 'years')>1) var status = 'Not COmpleted'; } return status Thanks, Robert And to respond to your question about the parser I do not know. It is really confusing to debug, but hopefully Esri might find a solution for it. I can see where certain characters close and which ones do not but in either case it is a bit complicated. ...

Thanks Nick. I was trying to write an else if statement but because I don't fully understand the context of how these scripts are written, it makes it difficult to write. I thought I was writing it correctly because I wrote it as: if(DateDiff(Edited, Now(), Hour(Now()-Edited<2))){ var Status = 'In Progress'; } else { if(DateDiff(Today(), Edited, (Hour(Now())-Hour(Edited)>1<8)))} var status = 'Current'; } else { if(DateDiff(Year(Edited), Year(Edited),'years')=0) var status = 'Completed' } } } return Status I apparently was close but wasn't sure if the way I was writing it would even work. I had something written like this and it tested out correctly but then I changed something and couldn't get it back. So I will keep trying to see which script works. I am using the editor tracking date to see if we can use this kind of symbology to keep track of workers in real time. Thank you very much Nick. If do find one that works I will be sure to post it.

If i wanted to add a third condition such as the past hour or two in addition to the script above. How would I go about writing that. I tried a few things, one of them worked but when I tried adding a third, it didn't. Is there a way to write a script so that I can symbolize the past hour as one symbol, the current edit date as another, and then anything beyond the current edit date as another. Thanks, Robert ...

Thanks Nick. I was able to get it to work perfectly fine. I changed the $feature.Edited to $feature.EditDate which made the arcade script work with what I was looking to do. I tested to see if it works and so far it works the way I was hoping for. So thank you very much for your help. I tried several things and I wasn't sure what I was doing wrong since I am also new to this. I realized there are more capabilities for symbology than I thought otherwise, so I thought to look into it further. ... View more

Thanks Aaron. I wasn't sure since I looked into Workforce but I guess I didn't check to see how I could use an existing service. I was aware of other things such as utilizing survey123 and other things but I think I vaguely forgot about creating assignments from existing services. Thanks ... View more

Thanks Mike, I meant to respond earlier for your help. I have yet to implement this but I was just curious about it because I was thinking it might be useful for my department. I have yet to see if my supervisor and manager would be willing to utilize workforce in this manner. Also, are there other sites that you could help point me to that could help me fully understand how to integrate most of Esri's applications such as workforce and survey 123. I know about navigator but I am looking to use some of the others and see in what other ways people have integrated these applications, or even other 3rd party apps. Robert Phillips ... View more
