Configuring automatically triggered incremental identifiers
Last updated
Last updated
Automatically triggered incremental identifiers can only be configured by an Administrator of the relevant Stewardship Organization.
Stewardship Organization Administrators can add automatically triggered incremental identifiers to metadata items, and configure them.
Note: Incremental identifiers must exist within a namespace, which itself must exist within a Stewardship Organization. See this procedure's parent page for information.
Select 'Administrator Tools' from the dashboard side panel.
Select 'Manage Stewardship Organisations'.
Select the relevant Stewardship Organization from the list.
Select 'Managed Items', then 'Namespace'.
Select 'Create Namespace'.
Adjust the 'Name', 'Shorthand prefix' and 'Definition' fields as desired.
From the Autoincrement dropdown, select 'Automatically assigned incrementing identifier'.
Select the automatically triggered identifier's triggers via the 'Metadata types', 'Metadata templates', 'Registration authorities' and 'Registration statuses' checkbox lists.
Select 'Create New Namespace'.
The item's identifier will now appear in its infobox.
