Field Definition
The Field Definition tab is where you define the search fields for the folder.
The search fields contain the search criteria that are entered by the user. For most folders, you probably want to define a search field for each field that you defined for the application group.
In the word-processing example, you might define the following
folder fields on the Field Definition tab of the Administrator client. The
fields allow users to locate documents based on different criteria.
The fields define information like the date of the document, the name
of the author of the document, and a description of the subject of
the document.
- Document Date
- The date that is associated with the document. For example, the date the file was created or the date the file was published.
- Author
- The person who wrote the document.
- Subject
- The subject of the document.
