## Introduction

The **Metadata (Lasernet Keep) template** page in Lasernet FO Connector enables you to parse the metadata (mapping) for the reports through Lasernet.

## Load Metadata

The **Load metadata** option automatically loads the information/metadata from Keep.

The metadata needs to be mapped for the reports where a new function has been added: **Lasernet** > **Common** > **Reports** > **Setup** > **Metadata (Lasernet Keep)**.

## Metadata (Lasernet Keep) - Reports Page

This option enables you to use Keep as an archive for the Lasernet reports from Finance and Operations.

To use the **Metadata (Lasernet Keep)** option, select the report you want to archive in Keep and click **Metadata (Lasernet Keep)** found in the **Setup** ribbon.

A metadata mapping **Template** form will be shown:
