Jul 6, 2018 at 1:27 comment added Michael Stimson Have a read of gis.stackexchange.com/questions/50656/… about ERROR 000735. I think you should ask a new question with your updated code to get more help on a different problem than was originally posted.
Jul 5, 2018 at 9:03 comment added Dixbe do u know the possible reason for ERROR 000735 Value is required? i tried running it with other layouts, while doing the same function (just changing base folder, layer name and output name)

Jul 4, 2018 at 3:07 comment added Michael Stimson It's not as easy to add a field of where the data came from, far from impossible but as a beginner with arcpy it's likely to be a bit out of your depth. As for turning a code into a description there is a tool Domain to Table resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.2/index.html#//… which exports the code/description to a table which can be joined to your data and then calculate the join_table.description into your out_shapefile.description field.
Jul 4, 2018 at 3:03 comment added Dixbe thanks, the coded value is a number while the description is a text (which is what we need) i tried joining the tables and added a field and it works just fine. However may i also ask if is possible to see insert a field on which polygon in comes from which folder(all folders have its unique zone name)? (perhaps like adding a field to see which folder's lot the polygon comes from, i can use the folder name as the result) i hope that makes sense
Jul 4, 2018 at 2:51 comment added Michael Stimson There are field mapping objects but that is quite involved. What is the difference between code and description? Do they have the same values? if so then it's easier to calculate field in your output from the one you don't want into the one you do want then remove the unneeded field.
Jul 4, 2018 at 2:44 comment added Dixbe It works fine! thanks alot, i did a small testing of 4 folders! however i checked one of the field in my layer used domain code value instead of domain description, is there anything i can add to the script to do that as well?
