You are now going to create the first entity in the newly created taxonomy.

  • Right-click on the QTaxonomy node in the Workbase and select Taxonomy... -> Include new Entity, or press Ctrl+F3:

This opens the Entity Editor.

The Entity Type of first Entity in a Taxonomy tree, can only be 'Singular obligatory'. This means that this Entity will always be included in a dialog.

  • Provide the name Ship configurator in the field Entity Name and click OK

Now your first Entity is placed in the Taxonomy tree below QTaxonomy object (note again that this is in the Workbase):

Every Entity automatically contains the standard Quaestor parameters: QEntityName and QEntityID. Both parameters will not be visible during a process dialog for users. The value for QEntityID is unique and is automatically assigned by Quaestor. It cannot be modified by a Knowledge Engineer.

The value of QEntityName is automatically prepended with a prefix that indicates the type of Entity (in this case “_”, which means singular obligatory Entity). Each Entity type has its own specific prefix.

When renaming an entity, be aware that changing the prefix will also change the behavior of the Taxonomy tree!

Values filled in the fields of the Entity Editor can always be included/edited later on.
