	When you would like to add or edit a Parameter, you will be presented with a dialogue which looks similar to the following:		When you would like to add or edit a Parameter, you will be presented with a dialogue which looks similar to the following:

	We will first describe the choice of language. Since a parameter can be seen by users speaking many different languages we will also need the flexibility to show the parameters in different languages. If users log in that are stated to have a different language than the ones for which you have specified values, they will be shown the default language value. The default value is chosen by clicking the “default” check box on the right.		We will first describe the choice of language.

The default value is chosen by clicking the “default” check box on the right.

	In this dialogue you must give your Parameter a name in a specific language in the “value” field. Then you must select a resource type in the drop down to which the parameter belongs. Finally, if you want that at least one option of the parameter must be selected, you should can set the parameter to “Required parameter” by checking the check box on the left.

	You can also add a new sub-parameter to a parameter by opening it, highlighting a record of the immediate level, then clicking the “add” button.

	When you would like to create a new record for a resource type, you will be presented with a dialog which contains the parameter(s) and sub-parameter(s) you have added. For example, when you create a new user, you can select one option for the parameter “Sex” as presented in the image below:		When you would like to create a new record for a resource type, you will be presented with a dialog which contains the parameter(s) and sub-parameter(s) you have added.
