Creating input models
An input model is a termbase object that provides you with a template for creating and editing termbase entries. When you apply an input model for adding or editing entries, you ensure consistency of data entries in a multi-user environment.
About this task
The way in which you set up your input model determines which fields are available for editing to the Multiterm user. The active input model provides default content for certain fields which can be modified as required. It can also specify that certain fields can be multiple, mandatory or read-only.
This feature can also be used to enter tips for data entry, for example, please use the Oxford Dictionary as a source for the term definition. When the input model is applied, the user can overwrite the tip with the actual definition.
Input models are termbase-specific. You can create any number of input models for use with a termbase.
