The ‘Project entries’ table contains all IATE entries that have been selected for the project (candidate terms are not allowed in this table) and for which assignments will be created. The features available are very similar to those under ‘Preparatory material’. Read more about preparatory material.
The entries can be added to this table directly or copied here from the preparatory material table using the dedicated button. Once the rows of entries have been copied to ‘Project entries’, changes to these rows can now only be done in the ‘Project entries’ table. Updates made in the project entries table will then be automatically reflected in the preparatory material table.
In this page, you will find out how to:
- Add entries to your table
- Customise your table
- Apply generic actions to all entries
- Apply actions to selected entries

Add entries to your table
Use the ‘Preparatory material’ table as a working space to gather all term candidates and existing IATE entries being considered for a terminology project. Then, only add the entries that you wish to include in your project and for which you wish to create assignments to the ‘Project entries‘ table. |
If you wish to add entries directly to your project entries table, click on the relevant button to perform the desired action:
- Add entries by ID: provide one or more IATE entry IDs, separated by commas or line breaks. Click on ‘Add entries by ID’.
- Add entries from collection: select the collection(s) you wish to add to your project entries table. Click on ‘Add entries from collection’. Read more about collections.
- Add entries from file: upload a file containing a list of IDs.
As soon as an IATE entry is added to one of the TPM tables, the ‘Related projects‘ field in the LIL of that entry (when seen in full entry view) will indicate that the entry is now part of that project. Click on the ‘Load TPM info‘ button, or display this information automatically via your user preferences. In ‘Advanced search‘, the entries added to a project table can be retrieved irrespective of their project status (‘Draft’, ‘Ongoing’, ‘Done’, ‘Suspended’ or ‘Abandoned’). |
Customise your table
The chosen candidates and entries are loaded in the table with a range of criteria or metadata displayed in columns. To configure your table, click on the ‘Choose and sort columns’ icon. On the left, there is a list of all the available columns. To display a column in your table, drag and drop it into the right-hand box.
You can also define your table settings in the user preferences. Then, click on ‘Apply my user preferences’ on top of your project entries table. Read more on user preferences. |
Sort the content of your table by entry ID, anchor language, term (alphabetical sorting), or owner (LIL) by clicking on the small arrow next to the column header.
You can also adjust the column width manually as needed.
You can rearrange the order of the rows in the table by dragging the ‘Sort’ icon and dropping it on the ‘Sort’ icon of the row where you want to place it. |
For a description of the columns of the project entries, read the dedicated section on preparatory material.
Apply generic actions to all entries
Several actions have been included in a floating panel that can be closed and reopened by clicking on the pen button. You can also move the panel around as needed.
The action buttons appear in two shades of blue: enabled action buttons are in a deeper blue and disabled button are in a lighter blue.
Description of generic actions
- Expand: opens the full screen view
- Refresh: reloads the table content
- Save IDs to file: saves a list of IDs from the table to a file. This file can be uploaded to other parts of IATE via the ‘Add entries from file’ button.
- Create watchlist: automatically generates a project-based watch list or appends content to it, if it already exists.
There are 3 export features in this screen: * Export table (on top right of the table): launches a synchronous (i.e. immediate) export into Excel of the project entries as they are displayed (keeping all customisations). * Export project (at the bottom of the table): exports the project details (4 tabs: project metadata, preparatory material entries, preparatory material candidates, project entries). Read more about exporting project details. * Export entries (in the floating panel): launches an asynchronous export of the selected entries (candidates are ignored). Read more about the standard IATE export. |
apply actions to selected entries
Select entries individually or use the check box in the first column header to select all the entries at once. |
Description of specific actions
- Mark as raw (only Administrators and Terminologist+ for own institution entries): updates the entry status to ‘raw’
- Mark as not raw (only Administrators and Terminologist+ for own institution entries): updates the entry status to ‘not raw’
- Batch search: runs a search by list of terms for the selected terms. Select the source language and matching option for the search, the fields to be exported, and decide whether to schedule the batch search request for a later time (default) or execute it immediately. Download the resulting report from the asynchronous requests list (in the Management menu). Read more about ‘batch search‘.
- Export entries: see section above.
- Delete entries from IATE: (applies to existing IATE entries only) removes the selected entries from IATE. Read more about ‘entry deletion‘.
- Move to ‘Preparatory material’: removes the selected entries from your project entries table. These entries will remain only in the preparatory material table.
- Move to another project: removes the selected entries from the current project and adds them to the ‘Preparatory material’ table of the selected project.
- Add to ‘Table view’: loads the selected entries to your table view. Read more about table view.
- Add to batch collections operation: adds the selected entries to the collections management screen for a batch linking operation
- Remove from project: fully removes selected entries from the project (from both tables simultaneously)
