How to include customized DC field values in Rosetta without adding a namespace?

Description

We would like to add some customized Dublin Core metadata fields to Rosetta for searching (Solr), etc.
For example, we want to add the following legacy identifiers from DigiTool: ingest name, ingest id, and PID.
We prefer to stick with DC as it's an established (interoperable) metadata standard rather than create a custom namespace.

Resolution

To add customized DC fields in Rosetta do the following:

1. Connect to the Administrative Module and go to Administration > DC Configuration 

2. Create a local backup on your desktop or network before making any edits (e.g. "webeditor_dublincore_configuration_BACK_20180731.xml")

3. Add to the <code>dc:identifier</code> local element a dc:terms qualifier and click "Save" when completed e.g.:

<element>
    <code>dc:identifier</code>
    <desc>Identifier</desc>
    <qualifiers>
      <qualifier>
        <code>xml:lang</code>
        <desc>Language</desc>
        <format>LIST</format>
        <values>
          <value>English</value>
          <value>Hebrew</value>
          <value>French</value>
        </values>
      </qualifier>
      <qualifier>
        <code>xsi:type</code>
        <desc>Type</desc>
        <format>LIST</format>
        <values>
          <value>dcterms:URI</value>
          <value>dcterms:LCCN</value>
          <value>dcterms:ISBN</value>
          <value>dcterms:ISSN</value>
          <value>dcterms:ISMN</value>
          <value>dcterms:DTLIngestID</value>
          <value>dcterms:DTLIngestName</value>
          <value>dcterms:DTLPID</value>
        </values>
      </qualifier>
    </qualifiers>
    <validationRoutines>
      <validationRoutine />
    </validationRoutines>
    <correctionRoutines>
      <correctionRoutine />
    </correctionRoutines>
  </element>

Additional Information

NOTE: Do not use a period ( . ), a comma ( , ), an underscore ( _ ), or a hyphen ( - ) in the <value> element
