Add Coded Value to Domain

Adds a value to a domain's coded value list.



1. Input Workspace

The geodatabase containing the domain to be updated.

2. Domain Name

The name of the attribute domain that will have a value added to its coded value list.

3. Code Value

The value to be added to the specified domain's coded value list.

4. Code Description

A description of what the coded value represents.

Assign Domain to Field

Sets the domain for a particular field and, optionally, for a subtype. If no subtype is specified, the domain is only assigned to the specified field.



1. Input Table

The name of the table or feature class containing the field that will be assigned a domain.

2. Field Name

The name of the field to be assigned a domain.

3. Domain Name

The name of a geodatabase domain to assign to the field name.

4. Subtype (optional)

The subtype code to be assigned a domain.

The Add Value button, which is used only in ModelBuilder, allows you to add expected values so you can complete the dialog and continue to build your model.

Create Domain

Creates an attribute domain in the specified workspace.



1. Input Workspace

The geodatabase that will contain the new domain.

2. Domain Name

The name of the domain that will be created.

3. Domain Description (optional)

The description of the domain that will be created.

4. Field Type

The type of attribute domain to create. Attribute domains are rules that describe the legal values of a field type. Specify a field type that matches the data type of the field to which the attribute domain will be assigned.

  1. SHORT—Numeric values without fractional values within a specific range; coded values. This is the default value.
  2. LONG—Numeric values without fractional values within a specific range.
  3. FLOAT—Numeric values with fractional values within a specific range.
  4. DOUBLE—Numeric values with fractional values within a specific range.
  5. TEXT—Names or other textual qualities.
  6. DATE—Date and/or time.

5. Domain Type (optional)

The domain type to create:

  1. CODED—Specifies a valid set of values for an attribute. For example, a coded value domain might specify valid pipe material values: CL—cast iron pipe, DL—ductile iron pipe,
  2. RANGE—Specifies a valid range of values for a numeric attribute. For example, if distribution water mains have a pressure between 50 and 75 psi, then a range domain would specify these minimum and maximum values
6. Split Policy (optional)

The split policy of the created domain. The behavior of an attribute's values when a feature that is split is controlled by its split policy.

  1. DEFAULT—The attributes of the two resulting features take on the default value of the attribute of the given feature class or subtype.
  2. DUPLICATE—The attribute of the two resulting features takes on a copy of the original object's attribute value.
  3. GEOMETRY_RATIO—The attributes of resulting features are a ratio of the original feature's value. The ratio is based on the proportion into which the original geometry is divided. If the geometry is divided equally, each new feature's attribute gets one-half the value of the original object's attribute. The geometry ratio policy only applies to range domains.

7. Merge Policy (optional)

The merge policy of the created domain. When two features are merged into a single feature, merge policies control attribute values in the new feature.

  1. DEFAULT—The attribute of the resulting feature takes on the default value of the attribute of the given feature class or subtype. This is the only merge policy that applies to nonnumeric fields and coded value domains.
  2. SUM_VALUES—The attribute of the resulting feature takes on the sum of the values from the original feature's attribute. The sum values policy only applies to range domains.
  3. AREA_WEIGHTED—The attribute of the resulting feature is the weighted average of the attribute values of the original features. This average is based on the original feature's geometry.

Delete Coded Value from Domain

Removes a value from a coded value domain.



1. Input Workspace

The workspace containing the domain to be updated.

2. Domain Name

The name of the coded value domain to be updated.

3. Code Value

The value(s) to be deleted from the specified domain.
