Starting with AX-3.5, a slot sheet view is available on histories. This view allows you to edit and add slots to histories, if desired. In addition, you can designate slots as “metadata slots” by assigning a metadata flag to a slot.

Properties that have the metadata flag are designated as metadata properties. You might use metadata property values to identify the location and function of a history’s source. History sources may be filtered or organized by the values of the metadata properties. You can use the Metadata Browser view to add, edit, delete, or view metadata tags.

To add a new property to a history using the slot sheet view, open the Add Slot dialog box (Ctrl+A) from the history Slot Sheet view, as shown below.
