    Initially you create a glossary in Language Asset Management by uploading a spreadsheet template. If you want to modify any source terms or their translations, or you want to add new items, use the following procedure to make your updates directly in the UI.
    Hinweis:
    The same source term may be repeated in a glossary if assigned to different Part of Speech or Product/Service categories. A source term repeated in two different categories is considered to be two different records. Any changes you make to a source term in one category aren't propagated to the same source term in other categories.
