Merge/Split Fields & Layers

In the Setup tool, you can merge and split both Fields and layers. Follow the video and article below to learn how.

-Note: The Merge/Split Field functions are not available for Fields linked to Agworld. For Agworld customers, all boundary management should be done in Agworld and pushed to PCT Agcloud. The Merge/Split Layers function will work for Agworld-linked Fields. 

-Note: The Merge/Split Layers function only merges or splits the layers and not the original datasets of the Field(s). If the datasets need to be stored under the new Field(s), they can be reimported, and the auto-process function will merge or split the data accordingly.
