Property Model and Label

Property Model and Label

Configure the Glossary asset and business initiative templates to create custom properties or custom relationships. Apart from default Business Glossary relationships, content managers can use custom relationships based on the needs of the organization to relate terms.
Use the
Property Model
 panel to define a custom property. Values that you configure or change in the
Property Model
 panel is available in all glossaries. All glossary administrators can add the custom property or custom relationship that you create to the template in the glossary that they manage.
After you create a property, glossary administrators can customize the
Property Label Definition
panel values to change how the property appears in the glossary that they manage. Glossary administrators can change the description of the property label and specify a default value for the property. Multiple glossary administrators can specify unique values to the
Label
 property to change the name of the property.
A property can have unique labels in different glossaries. The label of the property in the current glossary does not change when a glossary administrator changes the label in another glossary. The
Where Used
 panel shows the glossary where the custom property is used.
Example
You create a custom property with the label
Use Case
 and the string data type. In the finance glossary, the glossary administrator can change the label from
Use Case
 to
Business Case
. In the human resources glossary, the glossary administrator can change the label from
Use Case
 to
Scenario.
 The name of the property in the global list remains as
Use Case
 and the data type remains as string. Other glossary administrators can only change the label of the property, but cannot change the data type from string to integer or other options.
