Description

Ingest order:

• add product to catalog
• metextractors run
• add metadata to catalog
• versioner runs (on client or on server)
• add references to catalog

This prevents Metadata elements such as FileLocation from being set based off Product References since metadata is added to catalog pre-versioning

• A known work-around is to run the versioner twice (once in a MetExtractor and again when the Versioner is run in the ingest process) . . . however this is very much a work-around and setting elements such as FileLocation is a very common functionality.

I purpose that Versioning take place before MetExtractors run.
