The Metadata Field pane of the Final Cut Server client’s Administration window lists the
existing metadata fields.
The Metadata Field pane shows the following columns:
 Name: This is the name entered when the metadata field was created.
 Field ID: This is the automatically generated field name. It is for internal use only.
 Category: This is the automatically assigned metadata field’s family. All metadata
fields you create are in the Custom Metadata family.
Note: This column is not related to the metadata field’s Category setting.
 Description: This is the description entered when the metadata field was created.
 Data Type: This is the data type selected when the metadata field was created. The
data type defines the kind of data that can be entered in a metadata field (such as a
date, a timecode number, or a text string).
Note: You cannot change the data type once it has been set.
