How to Add New Metadata From Template

JCluff

I have 2 new fields coming from my Project Plan -> Metadata -> Roll-Up, and I need too apply it to all existing projects. I see where I can add/modify existing columns, but I need to add new rows to all of my metadata files with cell links back to my project plan. I already went through my blueprint to include these new fields for future plans, but I have about 50 existing plans I need the same update made. Anyone have any ideas on if this is possible and how?

Ah. Ok. Yeah. Unfortunately that's going to involve a bit of manual labor for the past projects.

Have you looked at the "Add New Profile Data" global update yet?

I've looked at it, but I don't believe this solves the issue unfortunately. From my understanding I can add a new field coming from my intake sheet, but I need to link in information from one of my templates to my metadata. I have the change implemented for all future projects, but need to apply the change retroactively.
