Description defined in a Meta Entity Type

This tab can be found in the editors of each entity type that has been associated with a Meta Entity Type. The tab is named after the label of the Meta Entity Type. This entity is used to add a description to an entity. For example, you can create a Meta Entity Type with a label "Program 2" to extend the description of the Program entity. Then, all the Program instances will include a "Program 2" tab in their editors.

The description is presented in a table with two columns. The first column displays the field names and the second column displays the field values. These fields are described in the Composition tab of a Meta Entity Type instance.

You can add or delete fields, or modify their values.

If the table is empty, click Add Field to display the root. Then click Add Field again to add a field in the table. A dialog box opens with the list of the fields available for each field type, as specified in the Meta Entity Type composition.

You can also click Add required fields or Add all fields to display the root and all the fields that have been defined in the Meta Entity Type.

To add a value to a field, click the value column, on the line where the value is to be inserted. Click Add Value to open a dialog box that displays the list of the authorized values for the field. These values correspond to the field description (type and format for example) that is specified in the composition of the Meta Entity Type. You can use a filter to search for values in the list.
