The parent keywords modified from this window will automatically be modified in all log
entries of the logsheet.
5.2. Log Metadata Profile
Definition
Log metadata can be attributed to log entries of a logsheet for predefined types of
information.
This is especially useful when tracking the pitcher in a baseball game, or a period of action
in a sports event, or program part of an entertainment event.
For example, you may have defined a "period" field with a list of values such as "first half"
and "second half".
Log metadata work like a sticky keyword that will persist through all new log entries made
until the automatic keyword is changed in the Log Metadata tab.
Assignment
At step 1 of the logsheet creation, a logsheet profile can be attributed to the logsheet. In
case a profile for Log Metadata has been associated at creation of the logsheet profile, a
Log Metadata area is displayed in the IPLogger window. The user fields from the profile for
Log Metadata are shown in this area:
Values can then be entered or selected in each field.
Each log metadata type is displayed as a column in the Logs grid.
Each time a new log is created, it will receive these log metadata values. If no value is
defined, the column remains empty.
Modification
Once a log metadata value has been added to a log entry, there is no way to modify or
delete it from the active system. If you have the required user right, you can modify the log
metadata values that will be associated to upcoming logs at any time in the way described
below.
Before creating a new log entry on which you want the log metadata values to be modified,
do one of the following:
