Product library custom steps and tokens (Production Mapping)

The product library custom steps and tokens can be used to leverage the file management capabilities of the product library as part of a workflow. These steps and tokens allow you to identify and associate a product library product with a job, synchronize the job files with the product files, check out the product, work with the product in ArcMap to perform data edits or cartographic updates, synchronize the product files with the job, and check the product back in.

Product library custom steps

The product library custom steps are included in the Production Mapping steps library. The steps, a basic description, and return codes are outlined in the table below.
