VRP schema changes

With Network Analyst now supporting the creation of the VRP layer from the Network Analysis drop-down gallery on the Analysis tab, there are a few schema changes to note when creating a layer in ArcGIS Pro or migrating your workflows from ArcGIS Desktop to ArcGIS Pro.

If you have a saved VRP .lyr file in ArcGIS Desktop, you can import it to ArcGIS Pro and the application will convert the layer to the new schema.

Note:
The Solve Vehicle Routing Problem geoprocessing tool still uses the schema from ArcGIS Desktop. However, the new schema in ArcGIS Pro 3.1 is applied to all the VRP sublayers when the analysis layer is created using the Make Vehicle Routing Problem Analysis Layer geoprocessing tool or from the Network Analysis drop-down gallery.
Note:

Don't use a Vehicle Routing Problem analysis layer created in ArcGIS Pro 2.6 in earlier versions of ArcGIS Pro, as these versions don't include the supporting schema.

The table below lists only those tables or feature classes in which the schema changes have been introduced. The right column lists the corresponding changes to the fields listed in the left column.
