You can’t use copy features because there are no features in standalone tables. I’m copying, columns not rows. Append is a good workaround if you use the field map, but it’s still a little clunky.  ... View more

Workaround seems to be append. Has to be a better way though.  ... View more

Me either.  ... View more

There is a group of about 20 editors for this particular layer. There definitely has to be a better way, but I don't know what it is. The positive part is that I don't dedicate a full two days a week to it, but rather work on it maybe for an hour or two on the days I add roads. This is actually related to a point file used for water meter sets and drop ins where the field crews are required to input the billing address associated with the meter. Workflow is that I create the new centerline and then I have to add the new road name to the meter layer.  ... View more

Nothing suggested seems really viable so far. I posted on reddit as well and someone created a sample codeblock to use. I suck at python so I'll have to stumble around and see if I can get it to work.  ... View more

Used to be in the Community group and submitted some updates. Then ESRI asked for a county wide update, and I explained to them that my office only covered the unincorporated of the county. After that they said no thanks to community maps submissions. They wanted all or nothing, instead of partial updating. Weird situation if you ask me.  ... View more

Right now its updated 2 days a week. I'm in an area of extreme growth. Its growing so fast that ESRI is way behind on keeping up with new roads, and for some reason they didn't want centerline updates for our service area, and instead only wanted county wide updates - but I digress. We don't allow field workers to add new streets because we have to keep it consistent for billing and service request orders.  ... View more

One gripe I've got with AGOL is that you don't have full functionality of the feature services that you have with feature classes or shape files,  when working with them in ArcGIS Pro. Seems to me that it would be logical to edit the domain of a feature service when it was viewed in Desktop or Pro.  ... View more

Our field crews have a pick list that is generated when they type the first few letters  ... View more

The use of the Domain is to ensure that the field crews don't misspell the road name or have some that use Dr instead of Drive, etc, etc. All the different spellings caused some issues with reporting  ... View more

I'm trying to get the value list to sort alphabetically, not the attribute table. We need the drop down list that field crews select from to be in order.  ... View more
