Input
The task must receive metadata that contains appropriate entities, generally from the Create
Record Set, Create Print Content, Create HTML Content Set or the Create Job tasks.
Processing
The task sets the chosen properties to all entities present in the metadata. These properties are
added to the entities on the OLConnect Server. Note that the properties are calculated only
once, and are applied identically to all entities. If each entity should have different properties
(such as record-level properties), the Metadata should be split using the Metadata Sequencer
task first.
Output
The task outputs metadata that is identical to the input Metadata. Only the entries on the
OLConnect Server side.
Properties
General Tab
l Entity:Use the drop-down to select the entity type of which to set the properties. This task
does not auto-detect entities, and so the appropriate selection must be made: Record,
Record Set, Content Item, Content Set, Job
l Properties:Add all the properties to be added
l Name:The name of the property.
l Value:The value to apply to the property.
l Add entry:Click to add another line to the Properties list.
l Remove entry:Click to delete the currently selected line in the Properties list.
l Move entry up:Click to move the currently selected line up in the Properties list.
l Move entry down:Click to move the currently selected line down in the Properties list.
OL Connect Proxy Tab
This tab is common to all OLConnect tasks and defines where to process the jobs sent through
these tasks. When these fields are empty, they use the defaults set in the OL Connect User
Options page of the preferences.
