Problem with Job ID / Trans Ref field

[wilrondeau]

Hi there!

I have created a batch of XMP files for upcoming games I will be editing. Each XMP has a unique MEID number associated to each game in the Job ID/Trans Ref field. When I load my XMP everything in the IPTC changes except the Job ID field. If there is data already in the field and I load my XMP, the data will stay there while all other fields have been changed with the correct data.

I have attached an XMP file as a reference.

Thank you for your help!

In your file, is the value "7761207828"?  When I load it into the Metadata Info dialog it appears in my Job ID/Trans Ref field.
Which build/version of Photo Mechanic are you using and what OS do you run Photo Mechanic on?
