Enable Archiving on the Dataset

To be used for markup, the dataset must be both non-versioned and archive-enabled. Versioning must be disabled so that GlobalIds can be created for the markup features in the ArcFM Mobile application. GlobalIds are required to provide unique, persistent keys on features. Archiving must be enabled to keep an historical record of markup edits. When you create a new dataset, it is non-versioned by default. However, the dataset must be explicitly set to archive-enabled. See Esri’s Creating a Feature Dataset for further details.

  2. Open the Data Management Tools toolbox.
  3. Open the Archiving toolbox.
