- On the property, click the button to open the Edit properties dialogue. The Edit properties dialogue opens.
- Open the Relations tab.
Note: The system roles Metadata and Mappable property already have predefined dependencies on specific relations. If you have selected the system role Metadata for the property, some fields appear in the Relations tab that only need to be filled. The relation has roles appears with the previously assigned system role. In this field you can add additional system roles if you need them for your individual configuration. To learn more about system roles and their functions, visit the System roles help page. You can add more relations using the Add button.
- In the field has icons you can select a suitable icon from the drop-down list. It is displayed later in the workflow step Assign and approve metadata. Since icons are also properties, it is possible to create additional icons.
- In the field has associated relation types, select the relation with which the metadata should be assigned to objects. Only existing relations can be assigned. If you want to assign a relation that does not exist, you need to create it first.
- Open the Attributes tab to make the desired configuration here.
Note: Again, for some system roles there are already predefined dependencies to certain attributes. If you have previously selected the system role Metadata for the property, some attributes already appear in the attributes tab. You can add more attributes using the Add button . You can learn more about attributes and their functions on the Attributes help page.
