Create metadata
Metadata stores supplementary information against work type, job query, WorkQueue control and others, similar to how file properties associated with an activity are stored.
The following example describes the procedure of creating metadata for a Job Query.
- On the Home page, click .
- In the Metadata group, consume a Work Type.
- Select a Filter Operator.
- Select a metadata field from the Meta Field list, such as DOJ.
- Select an operator from the Operator list, such as Equals.
-
Enter a value in the
Value box, such as
3/30/2016.
Note
- You can use the Like and Not Like operators in your search criteria, and use wildcard to search on case references and metadata of type String.
- TotalAgility supports the following wildcard functions.
?
