Note
Any operation that modifies the data with regards to the structure (ex: remove pages, alter
the data, etc.) makes the Metadata obsolete and so it must be recreated or refreshed; see
"Working with Metadata" on the facing page.
Note: Metadata in OL Connect jobs
In PlanetPress Suite, all levels in the Metadata hold information about an actual job. In
Connect, that isn't the case. The Metadata file created and maintained by OL Connect tasks
looks the same, but contains less information. Only the first three levels in the Metadata hold
information about the job: Job, Group and Document. A Group has information about a
record set in the Connect database and a Document has information about one record in that
set. This information appears under User defined information instead of under Production
information. The Data Model fields are added into the Document level.
Although Data page and Page nodes are visible in the Metadata file, they don't contain any
actual job related information in this case.
The Metadata related plugins (see "Metadata tasks" on page514) can be used in conjunction
with OL Connect tasks nonetheless; see "How Metadata affects the output" on page80.
