Adding an Entry

You can add new entries in local termbase.

Depending on your user profile, you may be able to add entries to a remote termbase.

To add an entry:

Select a layout that contains all the fields required for the new entry.
Select Add from the Entry menu or press [F3]. MultiTerm switches to edit mode.
If an input model has been activated, the current input model appears.
Add field content and additional fields as follows:
Select a field label and press [Enter] to open the editing box and add field content. Press [Enter] to close the editing box when you have finished.
To add new fields to the entry, select a parent field and right-click to display a list of subordinate fields. You can add any of the fields on this list to the selected parent field. If there is no list, the selected field has no subordinate fields.
For information about adding cross-references to new text fields, see Creating Cross-references.
To delete a field from the new entry, select the field label and press [Delete]. When prompted, click OK to confirm or Cancel if you decide not to delete.

Warning: Deleting a field also deletes any fields that are subordinate to that field.

Repeat step 3 and 4 until you have finished adding the entry.
Select Save from the Entry menu or press [F10] to save the edited entry. Make sure that all the mandatory fields are filled in, otherwise the entry cannot be saved.

Notes

All mandatory fields must be completed before the entry can be added to the termbase.
You cannot save an entry that does not match your termbase definition. However, you use Microsoft Word to add a Quick Entry that does not correspond fully to the termbase definition, it will be saved as an incomplete entry. You should then do a search for incomplete entries and complete it from within MultiTerm.
You can move between the fields using the keyboard shortcuts. Any fields that cannot be edited are light grey.
