The type of custom metadata field. When a type of field is used in the
GV STRATUS application, it has characteristics as follows:
• Boolean — A checkbox.
• Date/Time — A drop-down calendar from which dates can be
selected. Text can also be entered in the field.
• Number — Allows numbers only to be entered.
• Text - 50 Character Limit — A drop-down list of values, if
configured. Text up to 50 characters can also be entered.

restrict the number of characters allowed in a field. Fields with a
large number of characters slow search results.
