Using ArcFM Solution Desktop
Mobile ArcFM Solution Overview
The ArcFM Mobile Solution allows utilities to leverage ArcFM and Designer (if licensed) functionality in the field. Feature and redline edits made in the field are transferred back to the Enterprise using packets. The ArcFM Solution automatically creates these packets and automates the process of transmitting them to and from the Enterprise using tasks. Depending on the configuration, a field user can perform a wide variety of tasks before sending the packet information back to the Enterprise database.
ArcFM functionality such as Mass Attribute Update and the Template Tool may be used while in the field. If you have a Designer license, Designer functionality such as the Work Function Tool will be available in the field in addition to the ArcFM tools.
If you have a license for Designer, it must be active. To do this, check out a Designer license using the License Manager Desktop Administrator (see Configuring ArcFM Solution online help for more information).
