I've imported the FISH Events Thesaurus (very easy) and made it into a Collection; see screenshot. I then added this concept to the node Activity type and was able to access this Events Thesaurus when creating a new Activity record in the node Activity; see screenshot. Perfect. Thanks Phil for this - that's sorted. I''ve really started to understand Arches through your help this week, cheers. Have a great weekend, Jude.

So as I mentioned you can’t have a collection without a thesaurus even if that thesaurus is just a list for a dropdown. For example say you wanted a dropdown called ‘Threat Level’ and you wanted Low, Medium, High as your terms. 1. Select ‘Add Thesauri’ from the Tools dropdown 2. Add name in the Concept Scheme Name and Save Changes [https://groups.google.com/group/archesproject/attach/466ea1c7188de/image002.png?part=0.0.1&view=1] 1. Your new scheme will appear at the bottom of the thesauri list and will open the main page of the schema [https://groups.google.com/group/archesproject/attach/466ea1c7188de/image008.png?part=0.0.2&view=1] 1. On the main page you can see a blue ‘Manage v’ button. 2. Click this to open the manage concepts menu. 3. Select ‘Add Top Concept’ 4. Enter the term you want to add – ‘High’ and any scopenote. Save Changes [https://groups.google.com/group/archesproject/attach/466ea1c7188de/image009.png?part=0.0.3&view=1] 1. You will now see the term in the hierarchy.

Select ‘Make Collection’ from the ‘Manage v’ dropdown 3. If the operation was successful you’ll see this (a blue header with Success in the top left [https://groups.google.com/group/archesproject/attach/466ea1c7188de/image013.png?part=0.0.5&view=1] 1.

[https://groups.google.com/group/archesproject/attach/466ea1c7188de/image018.png?part=0.0.6&view=1] N.B if you need to add more concepts, once you’ve made your collection, then you will need to add them as concepts in the thesaurus and then go into the collection and add them using the ‘Add dropdown entry’. For example if you wanted to add ‘No Threat’ this is how you’d do it. I’m attaching the events thesaurus. Save it to your PC, Import it (it should go in no problem), Open it on the main page (see below), click ‘Manage v’ Select ‘Make Collection’ [https://groups.google.com/group/archesproject/attach/466ea1c7188de/image019.png?part=0.0.7&view=1] Give me a bell if you need any help Phil Phil Carlisle Knowledge Organization Specialist Information Analysis Policy and Evidence Group Historic England Direct Dial: +44 (0)1793 414824<tel:+44%201793%20414824> Mobile: +44 (0)7768 656427<tel:+44%207768%20656427> Many Historic England staff are working remotely at the moment and we are doing what we can to maintain our level of response but please bear with us as this may be slower than usual. http://www.heritagedata.org/blog/ From: arches...@googlegroups.com <arches...@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of manxnation...@gmail.com Sent: 17 September 2020 11:57 To: Arches Project <arches...@googlegroups.com> Subject: Re: [Arches] RDM - how to create a simple dropdown THIS IS AN EXTERNAL EMAIL: do not click any links or open any attachments unless you trust the sender and were expecting the content to be sent to you Thanks Phil (I'm quite a Beatles fan so I never mind that song reference to my name!), Okay, perhaps the attached screenshots will unpick this one. So, I created (so I thought) a Concept to add my handful of dropdown terms to, called 'Activity Type'. But this only appears in Collections, not Thesauri (as it's not a thesaurus as such, just a dropdown of less than 10 terms). Do I then add terms to this Concept in Collections? When I click 'Add dropdown entry' I get the attached error. Event Type thesaurus - could be useful, thanks. Cheers, Jude.

If so then you just need to go into that thesaurus and click ‘Make Collection’ (see image). This will automatically make the collection for you and will give it the same name as the thesaurus. [https://groups.google.com/group/archesproject/attach/52619e5e715f5/image001.jpg?part=0.1&view=1] If you don’t have a thesaurus then you’ll need to create one or select concepts from ones which you have that exist, ie. You can’t add a concept to a collection until the concept exists. If you’re selecting from a thesaurus that already exists then simply click on the ‘Add Dropdown entry’ (see image) and select the concepts you want to add. You’ll then need to go to the relevant node in your resource model, select datatype concept and then choose the relevant collection. If you want a quick chat about this just give me a bell on the mobile below or, better still send me a zoom and we can talk through it. If it helps I can also supply the Event Type thesaurus in rdf so you can import that straight in.

How do you create a simple dropdown in the RDM? All I want to do at this stage is create a dropdown of terms for the node Activity Type (in my Activity Resource Model), e.g. excavation; fieldwork; survey; etc. Attached is where I've got to, I can create the Collection but can't see how to add the dropdown terms. I simple one I guess. Thanks all, Jude (Jude Dicken, Collections Information Manager, Manx National Heritage) -- -- To post, send email to arches...@googlegroups.com.
