    Parent Metadata (Required)

    Parent Metadata tells mdEditor where the project metadata should go when it is published. If using ScienceBase, this is the folder above the project by default.

    If you imported the project metadata from ScienceBase originally, this section will be populated already.

    If you created the project metadata from scratch in mdEditor, this will be blank. If you provide a default parent ID in Settings (Publishing Settings for ScienceBase), this will be generated for you when when you publish. This is most likely your SA regional project folder. You can enter the parent item SBID directly in your individual metadata record if you wish.
