Note: This information can also be found in the DocuShare 7 Administrator Guide.
1. In the Object Properties category of the Administration menu, click the object class, such as Collection, that you want to edit.
2. The property page for that object class appears.
3. From the Add Custom Property menu located near the top of the page, select the type of property you want to add to the object.
4. Click Go. The Add Property page appears.
5. Enter information into the fields presented for your specific object property page.
You must enter data into all fields that are designated as required.
Note: When adding a Menu property to an object class, enter a menu item ID, not an item Label, in the Default Value field. If you add a required Menu property to an object class and you do not fill in the Default Value field, the system enters, as the default value, the value of the first item in the menu Choices field. The default value can be only one menu item; you cannot select two or more menu items as the default value.
Note: If you do not want a default value to appear on your menu, create a new item in the Choices field with the ID and the Label fields empty. This adds to the Choices field, an item with the ID of b_l_a_n_k. When you have finished adding Choices, make sure the b_l_a_n_k item is at the top of the Choices window. When you have finished creating the property and the user attempts to add the object, the default value for this menu property will be blank. A user cannot add the object until they have made a selection from the menu items.
6. Click Add.
DocuShare adds the custom property to the object class.
7. Click Object Properties | Update Properties.
The Update Properties page appears.
