<p>With respect to the <a href=
"http://www.hannonhill.com/kb/Release-Notes/7.2/index.html#easier-dynamic-metadata-field-configuration">
new dynamic Metadata Field configuration feature</a> you mentioned,
we did away with the ability to modify the XML configuration. You
aren't the first person I've heard requesting for the 'old'
functionality to still be available (in addition to the new
functionality) and I can certainly see your use case as being
something that will crop up for others as well. Do you mind adding
this to the <a href="http://ideas.hannonhill.com">Idea Exchange</a>
as a new idea? Please be sure to include the use case you've
described here as well. It will certainly have my vote.</p>
<p>As for the Metadata fields not retaining their values when the
name is changed - this is just due to the way in which those values
are stored in the database. There is a <a href=
"http://ideas.hannonhill.com/forums/52559-cascade-ideas/suggestions/921953-migrate-fields-between-data-definitions-and-or-dat">
similar idea on our Idea Exchange</a> with respect to Data
Definitions as they act in a similar manner. Can you also add a new
idea for Dynamic Metadata fields to retain their values when their
names are modified? This will allow others to vote/comment on the
issue.</p>
<p>Thanks!</p></div>Timtag:help-archives.hannonhill.com,2010-02-09:Comment/265660602013-04-25T20:34:23Z2013-04-25T20:34:23ZReordering custom metadata fields<div><p>Thanks Tim - I posted the idea at <a href=
