NLM Value Set Authority Center (VSAC) Value Set Authoring. Adding queried codes to the value set.
In this quick demonstration, you will learn how to add selected queried codes to your value set’s code list.
Here we have a table with the codes that we retrieved using a query. We need to add codes in this table
to our value set’s code list on the left. First, let’s click on the Edit button under the Code list table,
so that you could make changes to the value set. ... Now, select one or more codes by checking the corresponding check boxes.
I will select these three codes. To add the selected codes to the value set, click on the ‘Add to Value Set’ button.
The codes now appear in the Code List table. Another easy way to add one code at a time is to use the drag and drop method.
Click on a row with the code of interest and hold the mouse button. Then, drag the mouse pointer
into the middle part of the Code List table on the left, and release the mouse button. The code is now added to the code list.
If you try to drag and drop a code that already is in the Code List table, the system will display the error message saying that the code
already exists in the code list.
You can now save the value set by clicking on the ‘Save’ button.
This concludes our tutorial.
