Update Parent Linking Domains

In many feature classes there will be fields that link a feature in that feature class to a parent feature in another feature class. It does this by storing the parent feature's LucityID. For example, a park bench might store the ID of the Park that it is in. This provides important connection information for Lucity, but is less useful to users because it just displays a number. The Update Parent Linking Domains tool creates user-friendly domains for these fields. While the field will still store the domain could display parent records: Facility ID number, Name/Description, Facility ID and Name/Description, or Name/Description and Facility ID.
