I'm trying to export a GDB file version 10.5 in ArcGIS Pro 2.0.0 to a shapefile, but every time I do, I lose precision with the unique feature IDs. For example the IDs will go from 554423216 --> 554423210.000

This taints the data b/c now each feature does not have a unique ID, plus I can't accurately join attribute tables.

Why does this happen?

    so for a shapefile you will need to do multi-part to single part first > desktop.arcgis.com/en/arcmap/10.3/tools/data-management-toolbox/…

  • that will solve the issue in the attribute table?

  • most likely yes as you will have separate object-ids to a shapefile..
