Archive Date
This is different to an expiry date, as the document retains all of its original attributes but is also simply marked as “Archived”.

This would be accessed via a specific search facility using an template element such as Asset Browser.

Check to select the appropriate category or categories for the asset. Within the Asset Manager categories are used to store assets and also control access to the asset.
Tags
If required, select an owner for the asset. This is typically used to indicate the owner of the content of the asset, as opposed to the system user who last uploaded or edited the asset. Other meta tags may also have created. If required populate this with appropriate content.
4. Click Save to add the asset to a page.
