Metadata

Before you can enter metadata for new folders or documents in ELO for Mobile Devices, your administrator has to create a form and link it to the metadata form.

Information: If a form has not been assigned to the metadata form, ELO for Mobile Devices loads a default form with the fields Short name, Document date, and Extra text. If a metadata form contains mandatory fields, your administrator will have to create a form and link it to the metadata form so it can be selected in ELO for Mobile Devices.

Enter metadata on filing: If you create a new folder or add a file, you can enter metadata for the entries directly. There are different options for entering metadata for new folders and documents. Tap to open the following options:

• Always use the form: If this option is enabled, you will always see a metadata dialog box when filing documents. The form assigned to the metadata form is used to enter the metadata. If a form has not been assigned, the system uses the default form with the Short text, Document date, and Extra text fields.
• Only for metadata forms with form: If this option is enabled, the metadata form will only appear if the selected metadata form is linked to a form. If a form has not been assigned, the new entry is automatically filed with the default form. The default form contains the Short text, Document date, and Extra text fields.
• Do not enter metadata: If this option is enabled, no metadata dialog box opens. The new entry is automatically filed with the default form. The default form contains the Short text, Document date, and Extra text fields.

Enter metadata on serial filing: There are different options for entering metadata when filing multiple documents. Tap to open the following options:

• Always use the form: If this option is enabled, you will always see a metadata dialog box when filing documents. The form assigned to the metadata form is used to enter the metadata. If a form has not been assigned, the system uses the default form with the Short text, Document date, and Extra text fields.
• Only for metadata forms with form: If this option is enabled, the metadata form will only appear if the selected metadata form is linked to a form. If a form has not been assigned, the new entry is automatically filed with the default form. The default form contains the Short text, Document date, and Extra text fields.
