When you create the custom metadata object, select the class for which you want to create the metadata object. Add metadata objects based on the model hierarchy you created on the

Model

tab. For example, when you add a metadata object to the AccessDB resource, you add metadata objects of type AccessSchema, because the AccessSchema class is the root class of the model.

Create custom metadata objects in the

Create Custom Objects

window. You can create multiple metadata objects through this window. If the Metadata Manager repository is in a database that uses case insensitive collation, you cannot create multiple metadata objects with the same name but different cases. For example, you cannot create objects Customer and CUSTOMER.

By default, Metadata Manager displays

Untitled

as the name for a metadata object before you configure it. The properties you configure depend on the properties you created for the class. For example, the AccessSchema class includes the Name, Label, and Description properties.
