Additional Information

The performance of joined data is heavily impacted by the automatic geometry fields (ie: Shape_Length and Shape_Area), so these fields are deliberately excluded from the join results. If these values are required in the joined table, add a standard numeric field to the joined feature layer to store those values. Use attributes rules to ensure the length and area values remain up-to-date, or include a field calculation step in the workflows.
