Warning about adding non-preferred terms to the glossary

If your glossary managers want to encourage users to use specific glossary terms and discourage them from creating unnecessary new ones, you can enable a warning when users add non-preferred terms to the glossary.

  1. In the Admin page, open the Settings > Customization tab.
  2. In the Library section, use the toggle to enable the setting for Enable warnings for non-preferred values.

A glossary manager can now open each category in the glossary and decide whether to check the Warn users that enter non-preferred values check box. If the box is checked, a user who enters a non-preferred value in that category sees a warning and must close it before proceeding.
