Configure Address Search and Direction Search

The ArcFM Address Search and ArcFM Direction Search tools use Esri address locators to locate specific address information in the map. At ArcMap 10.5.1, Esri discontinued support for creating new address locators that reside inside the geodatabase. Because the ArcFM Viewer for ArcGIS Engine Address tools require a locator inside the geodatabase, new address locators are not supported at the 10.6.1 version.

However, please be aware of the following:

• Address locators that existed in the geodatabase prior to upgrading to 10.6.1 continue to work.

  • These pre-existing locators cannot be seen in ArcCatalog but can still be found and used by the ArcFM Address tools within ArcFM Viewer for ArcGIS Engine.

  • These pre-existing locators cannot be updated or altered.
