A number of common Enterprise fields are mapped to Elvis fields, which allows metadata changes in Elvis to show in Enterprise and vice versa. The following table shows which fields are mapped and if they are read from Elvis and written back to Elvis.

1 Content Source users must have edit permissions in Elvis for all fields marked as write
2 Changing the name of an file in Enterprise will rename the file in Elvis. The file extension will not be changed.
3 MimeType is mapped to the corresponding Enterprise format.
4 Copyright marked is derived from the copyright field in Elvis.
Enterprise fields
Since Elvis 4.4.1
When an asset is linked to Enterprise a number of Enterprise metadata fields are mapped. In Elvis these fields are read-only and are updated automatically when changed in Enterprise. See the table below for the list of fields.
| Field name | Technical field name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Archived from Enterprise | sceArchived | Boolean that represents if an asset is archived from Enterprise. |
| Category | sceCategory | The category of the file in Enterprise. |
| Category ID | sceCategoryId | The category ID of the file in Enterprise. |
| Enterprise created | sceCreated | Date and time when the link was created. |
| Enterprise creator | sceCreator | The Enterprise user who created the link. |
| Enterprise ID | sceId | The object Id of the asset in Enterprise. |
| Enterprise System ID | sceSystemId | The GUID of the Enterprise server where this asset is used.1 |
| Enterprise modified | sceModified | Date and time when metadata was modified. |
| Enterprise modifier | sceModifier | The Enterprise user who modified metadata of the file. |
| Publication | scePublication | The publication of the file in Enterprise. |
| Publication ID | scePublicationId | The publication ID of the asset in Enterprise. |
| Used in Enterprise | sceUsed | Boolean that represents if an asset is used in Enterprise. |
1 An asset can only be used on one Enterprise server at a time.
Enterprise placement related fields
Since Elvis 4.4.1
After an asset is linked to Enterprise this asset can be placed on a layout. The table below lists the fields related to the placement of the asset on the layout.
| Field name | Technical field name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Channel | sceChannel | The publication channel. |
| Channel ID | sceChannelId | The publication channel ID. |
| Edition | sceEdition | Edition of the placement in Enterprise. |
| Edition ID | sceEditionId | Edition ID of the placement in Enterprise. |
| Enterprise relations | sceRelations | JSON structure with relations of this asset as shadow object to Enterprise entities like Layout, Category, Channel, Issue, Page and On pasteboard.1 |
| Issue | sceIssue | The issue of the placement in Enterprise. |
| Issue ID | sceIssueId | The issue ID of the placement in Enterprise. |
| Layout | sceLayout | The layout of the asset is placed on in Enterprise. |
| Layout ID | sceLayoutId | The layout ID of the asset is placed on in Enterprise. |
| Page | scePage | The page number of the page the asset is placed on. |
| Placed on page | scePlaced | Boolean that represents if an asset is placed on an InDesign page in Enterprise. |
1 The equally named fields in this table are based on this JSON.
Enterprise fields without mapping
The following Enterprise metadata is deliberately not mapped because they are Enterprise specific and will be stored in Elvis when archiving files from Enterprise to Elvis.
| Category | Field name | WorkflowMetadata |
|---|---|---|
| State |
Mapping custom Enterprise fields
Since Elvis 4.4.1
Next to standard Enterprise properties, it's also possible to map custom Enterprise properties to either standard or custom Elvis fields. These mappings can be configured in the Elvis plug-in configuration file: <enterprise>/config/plugins/Elvis/config.php. Example mappings for every Enterprise property type can be found in this configuration file.
