Additional Information

This issue is a known limitation in the Table Compare tool. The issue is caused by the existence of the GlobalID field. The Data Comparison toolset is no longer under development.

Workaround

Use the following parameters:

Compare Type: All or Attributes only

Ignore Options: Ignore field alias

Omit Fields: GlobalID

If 'Schema only' instead of 'All' or 'Attribute only' in the Compare Type parameter with the options specified above, the alias difference is not ignored.
