A new MetaProperty has to be created as an instance from CUSTOMMETACLASS. This can easily be done in the Bulk Editor control following the steps
- Navigate to the MetaClass CUSTOMMETAPROPERTY
- Create a new instance
- Set at least name, description and data type
- Save the changes with Ctrl+S
Optional configuration
Assign a reference
Assign a selective list
Set a unit item
Format
Validation flag
Number of index keys
Default values
Initial values
Change the MetaProperty’s category if necessary
Enable Value Validation
Check the NEEDSVALIDATION setting of the MetaProperty
If a MetaProperty has value validation enabled the system explicitely stores a validatoin time stamp information in the database. This is paricularly used on the mobile client in combination with the CLS TASK and CLS MEASUREMENTTASK classification.
- der Wert dieser Eigenschaft muss am Client validiert, dh. zumindest einmal angeklickt, werden. Bei Verwendung der CLS_TASK Klassifizierung wird dieses Objekt als Finished gekennzeichnet, sobald ALLE solch konfigurierten MetaEigenschaften validiert sind.
Set a validation object to the VALUEVALIDATION setting
Using a Workflow
A new MetaProperty can be created and automatically assigned to a MetaClass via the Create new MetaProperty workflow. This workflow guides the user through the creation and configuration procedure of a MetaProperty and relates it to the selected MetaClass .
- Start Workflow “System / Create new MetaProperty ” from the context menu
- Set at least name, description and data type
- Change the MetaProperty ’s category if necessary
- Save the changes
- Optional configuration:
- - Reference
- - Selective list
- - Unit item
- - Format
- - Validation flag
- - Number of index keys
- - Default values
- - Initial values
