140 Part II General Administration
Adding or Editing Metadata Fields
You can add or edit custom metadata fields.
To add a custom metadata field:
1 Click the Create button in the Metadata Field pane of the client’s Administration window.
The Metadata Field window appears.
2 Configure the settings for the metadata field.
See “
Settings for Metadata Fields” on page 141 for more information on the settings.
3 Click Save Changes to save the custom metadata field.
The new metadata field appears in the Metadata Field pane.
You can also open the Metadata Field window and edit existing metadata fields.
Note: You are not allowed to edit the required metadata fields. In general, you can edit
only those fields with the Custom Metadata category in the Metadata Field pane
(although even some of them are not editable).
To edit an existing metadata field:
1 Double-click the metadata field in the Metadata Field pane.
The Metadata Field window appears, showing the settings for that field.
2 Make any necessary changes and click Save Changes.
The Metadata Field window closes.
See “Settings for Metadata Fields,” next, for more information on the settings.
