In ArcGIS Pro 3.1, Export Features output to a file geodatabase format does not add domain description fields when Transfer field domain descriptions is selected in the geoprocessing environment. This is because the Export tools transfer the underlying domain itself intact from the input to the output for formats which supports it.
The documentation for the Transfer field domain descriptions geoprocessing environments states, "By default, only domain and subtype codes are included in shapefile or dBASE output. This geoprocessing environment is useful because shapefiles and dBASE tables (.dbf file) do not support advanced features such as attribute field domains and subtypes; however, some workflows require the output to be one of these formats, and the domain and subtype description information is necessary to maintain." Refer to: https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/tool-reference/environment-settings/transfer-domain-descriptions.htm.
To add domain descriptions to any output format, the recommended procedure is as follows:
1. Identify the domain(s) in the source table with descriptions to be added as string fields in the output.
2. Run the Domain To Table tool to make an intermediate table with code and description fields (any name can be used for this).
3. Run Join Field based on the code fields in the output and the intermediate domain table, to transfer the domain description field to the output. The Join Field tool supports field mapping, and there are many additional field manipulations that can be performed spontaneously during this step.
While this introduces additional steps compared with the Feature Class to Feature Class tool, the Export Tools output are consistent in transferring the underlying domain intact for formats that support these advanced features and the Transfer field domain descriptions geoprocessing environment setting is reserved for formats that do not.
