Configuring Business Metadata

Creating Schemas

A schema has two names, which you can view and edit in the Schema Editor:

Display name. This identifies the schema in selection lists in SmartClient, it appears as a

label for the custom-metadata section on the Metadata panel or other part of the Clip
Data pane. This name can contain spaces.

Database name. This is the unique name under which the schema is stored in the

database. As an XML tag, this cannot contain spaces.

To create a schema:

1 In the Admin workspace, click the Schema Editor button

.

2 Click the New Schema button (to the right of the Refresh button). The Create new

Schema pop-up dialog appears.

3 Enter a name for the new schema.

4 Click Create.

The Schema Editor creates the schema and displays its details:

• In the Name box, the database name (which SmartClient automatically enters).

• In the Display Label box, the name you entered is displayed automatically.

• In the Fields list box, a list of the fields in the schema. For a new schema, the list is

blank; you have to add the required fields.

5 Click the New Field button. The New Custom Metadata Field pop-up appears.
