Lesson 1.6: Categorize the asset

Continue to describe and categorize the new asset.

A repository administrator creates repository-level category schemas. When you categorize an asset, it is tagged with searchable metadata that helps other users find the asset. Users also search the categories with the keyword search. This means that if you categorize the asset by using the Audit category and a user searches by using the keyword Audit, the asset will be listed in the Search Results view.

Categorize the asset using the following steps:

  1. On the Categories page, assign the asset to the Software Development category.
    1. Expand Software Development and then expand Documentation.
    2. Expand Format and select Textual.
    3. Expand Content and select Report.
  2. Continue categorizing the asset. Expand the Programming Language category and select the SQL check box.
  3. Verify that the categorization resembles the following:
