• You have a global role that has the System administration global permission.

Steps

1. Open the product for which you want to create an asset, for example, Business Glossary.
2. On the main toolbar, click .
   The Create dialog box appears.
3. Click the Assets tab, then click Validation Rule.
   The Create Asset dialog box appears.

Tip The Recent tab next to the Assets tab displays the 5 most recent asset types created within the last month. You can select asset types here and create assets more efficiently.

1. Enter the required information.

   Field	Description
   Type	The asset type of the asset that you are creating.
   Domain	The domain to which the asset will belong. Tip Ensure that the domain type of the selected domain is assigned to the selected asset type.

To do so, after typing the name, press Enter, and then type the next name. Depending on the settings, asset names may need to be unique in their domain. If you enter a name that already exists, it appears in the strike-through style.

2. Click Create.
   A message stating that one or more assets are created appears in the upper-right corner of the page.
