Create a Glossary

You may create a glossary using the configuration manager, as shown below or the repository manager.

Information note

Creating a glossary is just of an example of the process of creating a custom model. In this case it is based upon the Glossary model type. As it is a custom model, you may customize it.

Steps

  1. Sign in as a user with at least the Metadata Managementcapability object role assignment on the Configuration you are in.
  2. Go to MANAGE > Configuration in the banner.
  3. Click the Add plus sign under Manage Configuration and select Glossary.
  4. Enter a Name and Description for the glossary and click OK.

Example

Sign in as Administrator. Go to the MANAGE > Configuration and click the plus sign under Manage Configuration and select Glossary.

Enter “Example Glossary” for the Name and “User Guide Glossary” for the Description for the glossary and click OK.

This is the Configuration Manager view of the glossary. As with other objects in a configuration, you may specify Responsibilities, view Versions, review Logs, stitch Connections and review audit log History.

Information note

Unique to custom models, like a glossary, you also see the Workflow tab where you may turn on workflow and specify workflow options.

Click OPEN and you will see the object page for the glossary:
