Maintaining Metadata Values on Series Interactively using the Web Interface – Fusion Data Mapper

Use the Fusion Data Mapper to interactively set or change the metadata values for mapped series.

Maintaining Metadata Values on Series – Prerequisites

2. For each dataset, one or more series have been added (see Section Add Series to a Dataset).

Maintaining Metadata Values on Series – Required Roles and Privileges

To maintain metadata values on a series, users must be a member of the Agency that owns the SDMX Structure Set and the Dataflow Map that represents the dataset, or a member of a parent Agency if a hierarchical agency structure is in place.

Maintaining Metadata Values on Series – Procedures

The Manage Metadata table is a spreadsheet-style web user interface that allows the value for each Dimension and Attribute to be set individually for each series.

Changing Metadata Values

Clicking on a cell displays a list of values to pick from.

Cells where values have been changed but not saved are highlighted.

Save Mapping saves all of the highlighted changes, plus any series that have been added, and series deletions.

Revert All Changes cancels all changes that have been made without saving.

There is no ‘undo’ function.

Changing Multiple Cells at Once

The same value can be set in multiple cells by using CTRL-RightClick to highlight multiple cells for a particular Dimension or Attribute.

The control in the column header allows a value to be set for all of the selected cells in one operation.

Code Label Display

Changes the way information is displayed in the table.

• ID Only – Just the short ID codes are displayed
• Name Only – Just names are displayed in the language of choice
• ID and Name – Both IDs and Names are displayed

Column Filters and Searching for Series

Excel-style column filters are provided on each Dimension and Attribute column.

You can use the Series Code column filter to search for specific series by Series Code or Series Name.
