Hi Pavan,

I'm a bit lost in translation and not sure what your problem is.

As far as the submission process (not batch import) is concerned, there 
are three places relevant to changes in metadata fields:
- the metadata registry
- the input-forms.xml
- the collection specific template

Any metadata field must be defined in the metadataregistry before one 
can use it in DSpace. Thus if you want to use a metadata field which is 
not in the default registry, you got to enhance the registry first.

The fields displayed during submission are defined in the input-forms.xml.
Details on the configuration of the submission process can be found in 
the DSpace Documentation [dspace]/dspace/docs/html/ch05.html#N11B1F

Furthermore you can define one template per collection. Any item 
submitted to this collection will inherit the metadata in the template.



Hope that helps


Claudia Jürgen
