Change Glossary Types

[ArtekC]

Hello all,

I am wondering how to change the Glossary Types. AFAIA, there are only 2 built in (Business and Technical), which is a bit limitating. I want to be able to add terms dedicated to the development process of project management which are obviously neither 'Business' nor 'Technical'.
I've looked up the help file and this forum, to not much avail.
Is this feasible at all and if yes, how? If not, how can I make sure this is added to the future requirements for EA?

Thanks !
David

AFAIK these are hard wired in the code

Hello David,

try this:

• "\Tools\Export Reference Data\Model Glossary"
  
  
• Edit XML file in your way, setting for the terms the wished type:
  <Column name="Type" value="Wished Type"/>
  
  
• "\Tools\Import Reference Data"
  

Yes it's a white-man's trick, not clear against EA. You don't find the type in "Term type filter", but it works in reports and list-window.

And that is why i like EA, because of his XML export/import interface. It's good medicine for many troubles.
