utilize at the end of your URL: &find={your_account_number_field} Here is my example: https://oakdalemn.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=d1364e46bc2a45c6904c7e39e3d617da&find=2002921430034

Thank you so much!

How would you deal with dates? If there is a date selected/entered....if there isn't a date selected/entered. If there is a date entered in field A, I want field B to be "Completed". If there isn't a date entered in field A, I want field B to be "Open"?

Need help on my survey123 form. I have a date field "service_date_completed" and a status field "service_status". I am looking to create a calculation for the "service_status" field where, if there is a date selected for "service_date_completed", then populate with 'Completed'. If there is no date selected, populate with 'Open'

I need the same functionality too, to enter in maintenance/services to multiple features in bulk/batch...

‎04-28-2021

This still isn't possible? ESRI does not have a tool to batch add related records???

‎04-26-2021

Maintenance / Services / Inspections are RELATED RECORDS in a RELATED TABLE. They are not attributes. So no, one can not do that. ESRI has no batch related records tool in any software or solution, as crazy as that sounds...

A screenshot may be helpful.

Same issue here. I want to select all the hydrants that were flushed today and batch push the form to all the features I selected. NOT POSSIBLE and very frustrating.

If field crews are just recording a service type such as "flushing" and what date they performed the service against fire hydrants, is there a way to select multiple hydrants and bulk/batch apply the same entry to all selected? I ask because selecting 1500 hydrants individually and entering a separate form for each would take field crews the whole day. Wouldn't it just be easier to select all 1500 hydrants and apply the same flushing form entry to them, in one minute? Why is this not possible in Survey123, Field Maps, Workforce or any mobile solution for field crews? One can do this with ArcGIS Pro, etc., but that negates the power of field crews entering in services they perform and not having to pass that off to somebody else to perform in ArcGIS Pro....?

Thanks Craig. It doesn't really help a use case for Public Works. They exercise hundreds of gate valves a day, flush hundreds of hydrants in a day, sweep 500 street segments a day, snow plow thousands of street segments in a day, fill thousands of potholes a day, paint/stripe 500 street segments a day, jet a hundred sanitary sewers or storm sewers in a day. Crews don't have their phones out when they are in the field doing their work. When they come back into the office at the end of the day, that is when they enter in what they have completed. So swiping hundreds to a thousand tasks/features seems rather ridiculous. Also, Workforce only allows less than about 100 tasks/features to be allowed in an assignment....so in my street sweeping examples above, I would have to create five separate assignments at 100 features per assignment, to cover the same job in a day... My take-away just seems to be that Workforce isn't designed for, or the workflows of City or County Public Works crews wasn't the use case when creating Workforce. The limitations are so great, it becomes worthless for us to use as a tool. But, ESRI doesn't have a tool to batch close assignments, or batch create related records/maintenance records for field crews. So really, no ESRI software or solution has Public Works crews / asset management workflows as a use case.... Which, I guess is why most to all cities, counties, state agencies, etc., look outside of ESRI to find an asset management solution. Seems strange because almost every city, county and state agency has/uses ESRI, but when it comes to asset management, ESRI doesn't have a solution that functions for field crews, which the two are so inextricably tied. Seems like a large hole in ESRI's portfolio.

Just wanted to take the temperature of Workforce users in any Public Works use case. Anybody find it useful for crews to enter in service/maintenance/inspection data? Anybody run up against the inherent drawback of Workforce, that you can only close out one task at a time. You can't select multiple features and close our their tasks in bulk/batch?

‎04-16-2021

Exactly. Crews find things all the time that need to be turned into a work order / assignment.

‎04-16-2021

Yes! This is such a LARGE overlook by ESRI. Most agencies use related tables to store their inspection / maintenance / service data.
