===== Term Edit General =====
The Term general edit page allows users to edit general information for a Term record.  This includes its title, effective and expiry dates and links back to an external system.  Once changes are made the user can click the **Save** button in the bottom right hand corner to commit changes to the database.  Note: User permissions might be restricted by [[security_edit_forms|Form permissions]], [[security_edit_banks|Bank permissions]] or the record being [[concepts#Record Locking|locked]].
