Use the Subject Indexes screen to add index terms that link legislative files to specific topics. Index terms are useful for helping users find all the files that relate to a specific topic. The terms may be a word or phrase that is in the text of the document or the legislative file descriptions, thereby enabling a full text search for the term.
You can add subject indexes to a legislative file on the Associations tab in the Indexes list box.
From the left menu, click Legislative Files, then click Subject Indexes. The screen displays the list of previously added subject indexes.
Click New. The Index Term Name field is displayed:
(Required) Enter the index term in the Index Term Name field. You can click the Import Subject Indexes link to select and import a .txt file that contains index terms. Each term must be delimited with a comma; i.e., Streets, Sanitation, Parkway, Patrol, Fire, etc.
