-To add a document to the hierarchy classifier, you need to add a metadata entry just as you did in step 8 above, but with the metadata name set to the ''metadata'' option configured for the hierarchy classifier. For instance, if you built your hierarchy classifier with the metadata option set to dc.Creator, then you'd use the web editor to Add New Metadata with name ''dc.Creator'' for the document.+To add a document to the hierarchy classifier, you need to add a metadata entry just as you did  above, but with the metadata name set to the ''metadata'' option configured for the hierarchy classifier.
