Data XChange

If you already have indexing data about your document in another location, such as a line-of-business application, you can use Data XChange to import that data into your GlobalSearch records; there is no need to type it in. Data XChange looks up data in the source location for the editable Index Fields of the GlobalSearch record that you have open in the Document Viewer.
