ArcFM Engine Configuration Guide
Add Staker Tables to Enterprise Geodatabase

Version: 10.1

Resource Center Home

Designer Staker uses the following tables. These tables can be added through ArcCatalog's copying tool or through the Configure Designer Staker wizard. Use the Copy method to add tables that already include sample data based on RUS standards. Use the Designer Staker Wizard to add empty tables and then populate them with your own data.

Permissions: Once the tables have been added to your geodatabase,they must be assigned appropriate permissions that allow users to read and write.

Copying Tables

The sample geodatabase, Minerville.mdb, includes the Staker tables. They contain data based on Rural Utility Standards (RUS). If your data complies with RUS, you can use ArcCatalog to copy these tables from the sample geodatabase into your geodatabase. DO NOT use Esri's Load or Load Data tools, to copy the Staker tables.

  1. Open Minerville.mdb in ArcCatalog and right-click a table in the sample database and select Copy.
  2. Login to your Enterprise database in ArcCatalog as the SDE user.
  3. Use the Paste tool to paste the table into your Enterprise database.
  4. Repeat the above steps for each Designer Staker table. Please see the ArcMap documentation for more information.

You may need to restart ArcCatalog in order to see these tables once they've been created.

Once the tables have been copied into your geodatabase, you can use the Configure Designer Staker tool to create and edit assemblies.

Configure Designer Staker

The Configure Designer Staker tool adds empty tables to the geodatabase. You will need to populate the MM_STAKER_MATERIALS_LIBRARY table with your materials and then create assemblies.

  1. In ArcCatalog, login to your Enterprise database as the SDE user. The Designer Staker tables should be owned by this user.
  2. Select the geodatabase and click the Configure Designer Staker button. This button is not displayed by default. You'll need to add it using the Customize menu.
  3. The first screen in the tool prompts you to create the tables required by Designer Staker. Click the Create Tables button at the bottom of this screen.

 

  1. After the tables have been created, the Configure Designer Staker window displays the screen that allows you to create categories. Categories may be used to organize assemblies. (See Manage Assemblies.) Note that you cannot create assemblies until you have imported your materials into the MM_STAKER_MATERIALS_LIBRARY table. Please see the ArcGIS documentation for more information about the importing data.
