Creating a synonym list

1. Select Coding Setup > Synonym Lists.
   The Synonym Lists page appears.
2. Click the New button.
   The [New Synonym List] page appears.
3. In the Name field, enter a name for the synonym list.
4. In the Dictionary field, select the dictionary and version to associate with the synonym list.
5. Choose how to create the new synonym list.
   • To create the new synonym list from the beginning, leave the Parent field blank.
   • To inherit an existing synonym list, select the synonym list to inherit from the Parent field.

     When you create a synonym list by inheriting the contents of another list, the child synonym list appears to contain the synonyms from both lists. However, the list contains only its own synonyms; it does not include the synonyms from the inherited list.

   You can also copy an existing synonym list. For more information, see Copying a synonym list.

6. Click the Save button.
   You can now add synonyms to the list. For more information, see Adding a synonym to a synonym list.
   The page refreshes and additional fields appear. For a description of the fields on this page, see [Synonym List Name] page—Manage synonyms.
