You should create Serna's template (*.sdt) where set all metadata for your 
type of document.
See documentation:
Syntext Serna 3.5 Developer's Guide -> Document Template Development

As an example you may take sdt file for the DITA task:
"c:\Program Files\Syntext\Serna-3.5\plugins\dita\oasis-dita-task-11.sdt"

Thank you.
