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 "Work-
ing 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 con-
tains 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 Docu-
ment 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 page469) can be used in conjunction with OL
Connect tasks nonetheless; see "How Metadata affects the output" on page70.
Metadata Attributes and Fields
Each Metadata node (i.e. Job, Group, Document, etc.) is described with a series of elements, that is,
system-defined attributes or user-defined fields holding static or dynamic information about the node
