Configuring Metadata Changes with Advanced Reporting

Objective

After completing this lesson, you will be able to configure metadata changes with advanced reporting.

Employee Central Metadata Change Syncing

From time to time, Employee Central administrators may make configuration changes to the metadata configuration such as the creation of new fields or custom Generic Objects.

The metadata changes you make in Employee Central are automatically reflected in the Advanced Reporting solution the next day because a daily job syncs the metadata changes.

However, if you want the Employee Central metadata changes to be reflected in Advanced Reporting immediately, you can use the Purge Advanced Reporting Metadata Cache option on the Workforce Analytics Administration page.

Choose Purge Advanced Reporting Metadata Cache.

Note

Use this option cautiously because purging the metadata cache to sync the metadata changes might impact performance and cause errors for active users.
