- Description: Details about the collection
- Preferred Source: Source from which the concepts are going to be referred from.
- Owner: Logged in user or the organizations that the user is member of
- Visibility: Public access would enable people across OCL to view the Dictionary and subscribe. Private access would allow only the Owner to view and manage the dictionary.
- Preferred language: Language in which the concepts needs to have their names displayed on the UI.
- Supported language: This helps while defining the translations for a concept where the locales will be based upon the languages selected here.

Dictionary Overview
Click on any of the available Dictionaries to access its overview page. This includes:

- Option to edit the Dictionary
Releasing a Dictionary Version
Subscription to an OpenMRS dictionary should be made using a published version of a dictionary/collection on OCL. You can release a dictionary version, essentially creating a frozen 'checkpoint' for the contents of your dictionary. Clicking the 'Create new version' button will give the following prompt;
Name your version and provide an optional description. Note that the version name must be one you have not used before, e.g you cannot release two 'Version 1's.
...
Please note that once a dictionary is versioned, you cannot modify the concepts in that version of the dictionary. Any changes required in the list of concepts can be done only on the HEAD version of a dictionary and only upon creating a version of it, users can subscribe to that dictionary.
Users can see the list of concepts in each version by expanding the Actions button (3-dotted icon) and by clicking on the View concepts button.
Users can then use the subscription URL to import a particular dictionary version.
For example, in the previous example, we have two release versions. The URL for version 2 is this;

Update A Concept's Version
Adding a CIEL concept adds the latest published version of that concept from the CIEL source to your collection. A later release of CIEL may update this concept with new information or mappings. If you would like to have these updates in your collection, simply remove the concept and then add it to the collection again. This will pull in the latest version of the concept once again.
Removing a concept from your collection
Clicking the remove button removes a concept from your collection.
Create a new concept
Click "Create new concept" then select the class of the Concept you wish to create. Fill in the form with appropriate values for Names, Descriptions, Mappings, e.t.c and click "Submit".

Update a concept in HEAD version
Once a concept is added to the HEAD version of a dictionary, it only takes the reference of that concept's latest version from the CIEL source at that moment to the dictionary. Any updates done on the concept to CIEL at a later point of time will not be taken to the dictionary automatically. Users can update the concepts in a dictionary by manually removing the concept from the dictionary and adding it again. This updates the concept to its latest version in the HEAD of the dictionary. Users can create another version of the dictionary which will then have the latest version of the concept and can be subscribed to by an OpenMRS server.
