Hello Shawn,
the easiest way to update metadata is the batch metadata editing. It
should work with any metadata field which is registered in your
instances metadata registry regardless of the schema.
So first register your schema in your instance and add the field(s) to
this schema.
On the UI log in as administrator then Administer -> General Settings ->
Metadata Registry
At the bottom of the list is the point where you can create the schema
"Create a new schema by entering a namespace/name or edit an existing
one by clicking the update button. The schema name must be less than 32
characters and cannot include spaces, periods or underscores. "
Once created click on the schema in the list and add your fields.
Hope this helps

I’m looking to add local schema metadata to existing items. From my readings
this doesn’t seem possible. First I looked at using ItemUpdate to update the
metadata, but according to
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC6x/Updating+Items+via+Simple+Archive+Format,
it only does metadata fields defined in dublin_core.xml. Then I thought of
using batch metadata editing, but
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC6x/Batch+Metadata+Editing under file
structure says that the fields need to be Dublin core. My searches for related
posts came up empty. I do know that importing a new item with the local fields
is working, but I’m not sure I can think of another way to import the local
schema with just metadata. Think I have to resort to removing the items and
importing them as “new” objects? Admittedly, this is my fallback position
anyway, because I fear there is a chance that simply editing the metadata won’t
trigger the embargo code, so I’d have to reimport the objects anyway, since
that is proven working.
