Resolve a Conflict in Feature Definition Files

Resolve inconsistencies between a feature definition file associated with your project and those on assigned SCS site controllers by overwriting the file on the controllers with the project's file. A conflict is indicated by the active Resolve button with the icon in the Job Site Manager.

Causes of a feature definition file conflict include differences in file names or dates.

Note: The Undo and Redo commands do not affect any of the functions that synchronize files. Undo and Redo affect only edits made to database objects within your project; this does not include files in the data synchronization area (which SCS and GCS use). If you try to undo a conflict resolution, the Resolve button remains disabled because the conflict is still resolved.

To resolve a conflict in feature definition files:

  1. Click Resolve in the Job Site Manager. The Resolve Feature Codes Conflict dialog displays.
  2. Review the files that are in conflict.
  3. To use the file specified for your project, click OK. The files on the controllers are updated in the data synchronization area, and the conflict is resolved.

    Warning: Resolving a conflict by selecting the project-based file overwrites the feature definition files on the assigned controllers when they are synchronized.

To add or change the feature definition file:

See the help topic on Feature Code Processing Settings.
