If a user chooses “Codelist” from the top menu, the corresponding menu items in the third group will appear as “Load from registry” (from the dropdown menu), “Refresh the registry”, “Import”, “Reset the current Editor inputs”, “Translation Service”, and “Bulk load”.

However, suppose a user selects “ConceptScheme” from the top menu instead. In that case, the user will see three additional options: “Add New Concept”, “Load Concept”, and “Delete Selected Concepts” relevant to the chosen menu item at the top, i.e., “ConceptScheme”.

All options available within this menu group per the item selected on the top menu are listed below.
