You have to extend that data dictionary with a description of your additional properties (name, type, multiplicity, etc.). There is a <A href="http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Data_Dictionary_Guide" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">guide</A> in the Alfresco wiki.</LI><BR /><LI>You must tell the web client to display your additional properties and/or to make them editable.
