Configure the Utility Network

For each asset, you must identify the utility network service that is associated with it.

PREREQUISITES:

  • Utility network layers must be added as a service resource on the GIS Services page before they can be configured for tracing. See Add or Edit GIS Service Resources for more information.
  • To edit utility network attributes, a user needs a Professional user type (Standard or Plus) or a Creator user type combined with an ArcGIS Utility Network extension license. See the Professional User Type and Creator User Type on Esri's website. The required license depends on the specific user type and your ArcGIS Enterprise version, with the Professional type including the utility network extension by default, as noted by Esri. Please consult directly with your Esri representative regarding evolving standards and other pertinent details.

IMPORTANT: The Cityworks mobile apps do not support the Utility Network.

Once this is set up for the asset type, if an asset is added to a standard inspection the utility network can trace the upstream or downstream entities.
