SP2013 with SQL server 2014 environment. I have never used the term store before and experimented a bit with Managed Metadata - so I need advice how / what to setup for my client please?
Question 1:
Document center can have two types of documents: DCdocuments (columns: Classification, Requester) and Client Case Files (inherit from DCDocuments with an extra column)
So when I upload a document in my library, it ask to complete the necessary fields specified in my content type.
In the library I then want to apply Key Filters, based on the columns created in my content type.




For example I want to filter on 'Classification' (which is a drowdown field) But when I go to managed metadata in library settings, it does not give me the option to select the field 'Classification'. Why is that?
Or do I need to look at TermSets and Terms?




Question 2:
Client will upgrade to SP2016 within the next few months. Will the managed metadata services or termstore setup make the migration difficult?
