Metadata is the additional information that could be added to a barrier. This information can include the barrier type, its condition, owner and location.
A standard list of metadata types could be created for your organisation via the settings menu. If you would like to create metadata types for each of the bowties you create have a look at adding new metadata at a bowtie diagram level.
Step 1: To add a new type of metadata go to the Metadata Side Menu found on the left-side of the Diagram Editor and click on + METADATA.
Any change you make here only apply to this diagram. Go to the Setting Menu to create a standard list of metadata that apply to all diagrams created.
Step 2: Type in a name for the new metadata that is to be created and click SAVE.
The newly created metadata will be displayed on the Metadata Side Menu.
Step 3: Click on the newly created metadata to edit.
If you would like to set different metadata types for the bowties created in your organisation this can be done in the settings menu.
Step 1: Go to the SETTINGS Menu and then the METADATA tab
Step 2: Click on the + METADATA field and type in a new name for the metadata that is to be created and click SAVE.
Step 3: The new metadata created will be displayed on the Metadata Types list. To edit the metadata that has been created click on the EDIT METADATA field
Step 1: To delete metadata in the Diagram Editor go to the Metadata Side Menu and click on the metadata that is to be deleted.
Step 2: Click on DELETE.
Step 3: Confirm deletion of metadata by clicking on DELETE METADATA.
This action cannot be undone once completed. This will permanently delete the selected metadata.
Click into the SETTINGS menu and then head to the METADATA tab, click into the ellipsis next to the metadata type that is to be deleted and then click the DELETE METADATA field.
