Applying a Metadata Schema

Once you have built a Metadata Schema, you can apply it to various assets within your system. You can also apply multiple Metadata Schemas to an asset. If, however, two or more schemas have the same field name, a warning message will appear. For example, if you apply two Metadata Schemas to an asset and both schemas have the field Description, a warning will appear. This situation is not recommended within Squiz Matrix.

Tip: Any Squiz Matrix user can add or edit a Metadata Schema, but only users with administration privilege to an asset can apply a Metadata Schema to that asset.

You can apply a Metadata Schema to an asset on the Metadata Schemas screen. Once a schema has been applied, you can fill out the values on the Metadata screen. For more information on how to apply a Metadata Schema and fill out the values, refer to the Asset Screens manual.
