Clear Lucity Edit Cache

All edits made during an ArcMap edit session are tracked in the GBAARCED table.  When you save your edit session the Lucity GIS Extension will process through the GBAARCED table updating the desktop with the edits.

The GBAARCED table is located in your geodatabase as a standalone table.  If your geodatabase doesn't contain this table, the GBAARCED table in the GBAComm database will be used to track edits (this option is only available with Lucity versions 6.72 and later).

You may find that it is necessary to clear the edit cache.  Some typical reasons may include:

Important: If you clear the Lucity Edit Cache it will clear all records added by the current user.  The desktop will not be updated with edits that are cleared from the Lucity Edit Cache!  You will either need to perform the edits again in a new edit session, or run the Force Synchronization tool on the previously edited features in order for the desktop to get updated correctly.

To clear the Lucity Edit Cache:

  1. Start an edit session in ArcMap.  It is important that you are logged into the desktop as the user whose edits you wish to remove from the Lucity Edit Cache.  If you are not logged into the program as that user, you will need to restart ArcMap so that you can log back into the desktop as the correct user.
