Status
Known Limit
After review by the development team, it has been determined that this issue is related to a known limitation with the software that lies outside of Esri's control. The issue's Additional Information section may contain further explanation.
Description
With all the automatic features/options turned on for metadata, the updates are not immediately reflected in ArcCatalog's metadata tab after editing versioned data in ArcMap.
Cause
This is a known limitation.
Workaround
The metadata is updated, but at the moment, the update can only be seen by doing one of the following:
▪ Disconnect and reconnect the Spatial Database Connection in ArcCatalog; view updated metadata,
OR
▪ Switch to a new version (by way of Connection Properties), and switch back to original version; view updated metadata updates.
At version 9.3, refresh the connection (right-click on spatial database connection > refresh).
