Creating a file of custom terms

Procedure

1. Select Tools > Feature Availability > Configure Custom Terms > Configure.

2. Select the terms that you would like to modify from the Avaliable Terms, and use the down arrow to move the terms into the Custom Terms list to be customized.

3. For each row, enter the revised term in the modified column.

4. Click Save.

Results

The terms are saved in files in the following location: %ProgramData%\i2\i2 iBase\``language``\Trans. For example: C:\ProgramData\i2\i2 iBase\en-US\Trans.

Important: Any changes that you make to your local custom terms file will be overridden if a custom terms file is distributed via a database that you connect to. You can create a backup of the files in this location if you would like to keep your versions.

The new terms will be loaded and used in iBase, Analyst's Notebook, and iBase Designer.

If you would like to revert to the original terminology at any time, reopen the Custom Term Editor and use Reset.

What to do next

If you would like to share your custom terms with other users, you can either provide a copy of your file, or associate your terms with one or more databases. For more information, see:
