Additional Information

Issue not reproducible in ArcGIS Pro 2.7 Beta.

Workaround

1. Using 'Join field' instead of 'Add Join' (Alters the data)

  • Join Field
  • Select Layer by Attribute
  • Select / Make Layer from Selected Features
  • Feature Class to Feature Class

2. Export the joined feature class before creating the selection layer (Client currently uses this workaround)

  • Add Join
  • Feature Class to Feature Class
  • Select Layer by Attribute
  • Select / Make Layer from Selected Features
  • Feature Class to Feature Class

* These workarounds might not be suitable options for user because the first one alters the data and the second one adds two extra steps to the workflow.
