If configured by your administrator, metadata can be applied to files during upload. Metadata is an underlying definition or description applied to all files being uploaded in a batch to the selected folder.
When uploading a new version of a document
that already exists in the ProjectDox database, you can choose to inherit
any metadata that has already been applied to the files you are uploading
by selecting the Inherit metadata for versioned files check box. Metadata
applied may be viewed from the history icon 
of the
file and can be used to search for specific types of files.
