Summary
Enables topology on a parcel fabric.
The tool adds the following to the parcel topology:
- System-defined parcel rules and geodatabase topology rules
- Parcel fabric feature classes
Once the parcel fabric topology is enabled, the parcel fabric can be validated to identify rule errors, and parcels can be built.
Usage
On an enterprise geodatabase, the input parcel fabric must be from a database connection established as the database parcel fabric owner.
The connected ArcGIS Enterprise portal account must be the parcel fabric owner.
On an enterprise geodatabase, this tool should be executed when connected to the default version.
The parcel fabric topology should not be enabled when performing certain actions such as adding parcel types or performing batch calculations of attribute fields.
Learn more about when the parcel fabric topology should be enabled and disabled.
The parcel fabric topology must be enabled before publishing a parcel fabric.
To disable the parcel fabric topology, run the Disable Parcel Topology tool.
For performance reasons, it is recommended that the parcel fabric topology be disabled before loading data into the parcel fabric.
To determine if a parcel topology is enabled on a parcel fabric, right-click the parcel fabric in the Catalog pane and click Properties to open the Parcel Fabric Properties dialog box. Expand Parcel Fabric to view the Topology Enabled property.
