  1. If necessary, specify the data destination for the parent collection (the collection that will contain all of the new data):

    1. If the Base Path field is available, select the base path specified by your group administrator. An information icon (The information icon for the base path.) appears next to the Base Path field and the system begins to populate values in the Collection Type field.  
      A portion of the Register Collection page with the hierarchy icon.

      Consider examining the valid hierarchy for the selected base path. To do so, click the information icon next to the Base Path field. A Valid Data Hierarchy and Mandatory/Optional Metadata Structure chart appears. For details, refer to Viewing the Data Hierarchy and Metadata Structure for an Archive

    2. If the Collection Type field is available, and if there is more than one collection type, select the one in which you want to register data. For guidance on selecting a collection type, refer to your group administrator. For some collection types, the system displays a list of required metadata attributes. 
    3. In the Collection Path field, specify the full path, including the base path and the name of the collection in which you intend to register bulk data. Avoid using invalid characters such as the space character, question mark (?), semicolon (;), backslash (\), or double quote ("). Consider the following example: 

      PathExample
      Base path/SAMPLE_Archive
      Collection path/SAMPLE_Archive/Sample_Collection_Name

      The last collection in the path can be new or existing.  

  2. Specify the metadata for the parent collection. The system applies this metadata to the entire collection, not to individual files:
    1. Include Page
      shared step - add metadata
      shared step - add metadata

      If you change your mind about adding an attribute, click the trash can icon next to that attribute. If you proceed to update the collection with a new attribute, the attribute name is permanent.

    2. Include Page
      shared step - specify attribute values
      shared step - specify attribute values
