Appends records from one feature class into a new empty feature class. Appends attachments from the original feature class into the attachment table of the new feature class.

• Assumes attachments related by GLOBALID.
• Helpful in the event that fields need to be reordered, in which case a new table must be created. The new table will have different global ids than the original table. The attachments need to therefore be reassigned.

1. If applicable, copy-paste feature class from the enterprise geodatabase to a new file geodatabase.
2. Create a new empty output table (with the reordered fields if applicable). The name should be unique.
3. If the output table does not have a GLOBALID field, add one. Right-click > Manage > Add GlobalIDs.
4. Change the following parameters in the script (appendAttachments.py).
5. Run the script.
6. Check the output.
7. If applicable, copy-paste the new feature class into the enterprise geodatabase.
