Adding a Terminology Database Entry

To add a terminology database entry

Click Add Entry.
In the Term Database - Propose New Entry dialog, fill in any TD Entry attributes.

Define an initial term for this entry by doing the following:

Enter the term name.
Select the language of the term.
Select a processing status from the Status drop-down. If you select either Active or Inactive, a second drop-down appears from which you select an administrative status.
Click Save Term.

When you click Save Term, the term you have added gets moved down to the term list at the bottom of the page and the term section becomes cleared to use for adding another term. Whatever status you selected from the Status drop-down for a term is given.

The Reset button in this section clears any changes you have made on the current term you are proposing. It does not affect terms you have already saved and which are now at the bottom of the page.

Note: You can select terms in the entry terms section in order to edit them. When you click a term in the entry terms section, WorldServer commits the term you are currently working on and opens the term you clicked on in the term editor section. You can make you edits and save that term again, then reopen the term you were working on before you clicked on the term in the committed terms list at the bottom.

When you are done adding terms, click Save Entry to commit your new entry to the terminology database. The window disappears.

The entry can now be found in the Tools > Term Databases > Term Database: <TD> page, where a user with sufficient permissions can open and validate it, either activating, deactivating, or rejecting it.
