A boolean value that specifies whether CFS, when importing document metadata from an external (non-FileNet-P8) repository into a Content Cortex repository, treats the changes made to documents residing in the external repository as having greater priority than any changes made to corresponding Content Cortex documents. When the value of this property is true, the external document changes have priority, and CFS unconditionally updates Content Cortex documents with the imported metadata. When false, CFS updates a Content Cortex document only if the document has not been changed more recently than the corresponding external document.

Suppose, for example, that a Content Cortex document X exists with a corresponding external document Y, a user within the Content Cortex repository has changed the metadata for X yesterday, a user within the external repository has changed the metadata for Y the day before yesterday, and CFS, as scheduled, imports metadata today from the external repository into the Content Cortex repository. CFS discovers that X has been changed more recently than Y, and therefore does not update X with the metadata from Y (presuming that the FederationUpdateHasPriority property has a value of false).

CFS performs the change date comparison based on the Content Cortex DateLastModified property and the corresponding property on the external document. If the external document has no such corresponding property, CFS unconditionally updates Content Cortex documents with imported metadata regardless of the value of this property.
