You will have the option of creating a new Dictionary by clicking the "Create New Dictionary" button (circular plus icon).
Users who are part of an organization can create Dictionaries under that organization and also can contribute to the Dictionaries created by other members of the Organization. Below page allows the users to browse through such Dictionaries that are created and maintained under the Organizations they're member of.
Users can browse through all the public dictionaries, including those that belong to other people/organisations. Users can switch tab from their landing page to Public Dictionaries, which will take them to below page
A real-life user may be creating dictionaries for different reasons, e.g. they may be creating an implementation dictionary for a specific hospital, or a starter set that will eventually be used by multiple hospitals. The UI for these is the same. Click "Create New Dictionary" to get started.
Field level details:
User will be taken to the same page when they want to edit a dictionary. Fields such as Short code, Owner cannot be changed from the value defined while creating the dictionary.
Click on any of the available Dictionaries to access its overview page. This includes:
Subscription to an OpenMRS dictionary should be made using a published version of a dictionary/collection on OCL. You can release a dictionary version, essentially creating a frozen 'checkpoint' for the contents of your dictionary. Clicking the 'Create new version' button will give the following prompt;
Name your version and provide an optional description. Note that the version name must be one you have not used before, e.g you cannot release two 'Version 1's.
You can mark the Release status as Yes/No, indicating whether this version of the dictionary can be used for subscription or not.
Providing these details and confirming the version creation will add that version to the list;
Please note that once a dictionary is versioned, you cannot modify the concepts in that version of the dictionary. Any changes required in the list of concepts can be done only on the HEAD version of a dictionary and only upon creating a version of it, users can subscribe to that dictionary.
Users can see the list of concepts in each version by expanding the Actions button (3-dotted icon) and by clicking on the View concepts button.
Users can then use the subscription URL to import a particular dictionary version.
For example, in the previous example, we have two release versions. The URL for version 2 is this;
https://qa.openconceptlab.org/users/admin/collections/TestVersions/2/
and for version ID 1;
https://qa.openconceptlab.org/users/admin/collections/TestVersions/1/
Click "View Concepts" to view the page similar to the one above. This shows a tabulated list of all Concepts in the HEAD version of the Dictionary with options for Search, Filter, Edit, Remove, and Retire
Note: Concepts that are imported from a source can only be Removed from a dictionary. Custom concepts created within the dictionary can be Edited and Retired but cannot be removed from the dictionary.
Users can add concepts to a dictionary by two ways:
Users can add concepts from a source, either by
Pick concepts:
Select the desired source from the list and use the search field and/or the filters to find your desired concept then click "Add to Dictionary" to add it to your Dictionary. It is possible to add multiple concepts in a search result list by clicking on the result row (not the concept name), then using the checkboxes and then pressing the "+" button at the top right. Already added concepts are represented by tick mark and you can also filter by retired concepts.
To see a preview of a Concept, click the Concept Name, which will take the user to a page similar to below
To add existing concepts in bulk:
Adding a CIEL concept adds the latest published version of that concept from the CIEL source to your collection. A later release of CIEL may update this concept with new information or mappings. If you would like to have these updates in your collection, simply remove the concept and then add it to the collection again. This will pull in the latest version of the concept once again.
Clicking the remove button removes a concept from your collection.
Click "Create new concept" then select the class of the Concept you wish to create. Fill in the form with appropriate values for Names, Descriptions, Mappings, e.t.c and click "Submit".
Once a concept is added to the HEAD version of a dictionary, it only takes the reference of that concept's latest version from the CIEL source at that moment to the dictionary. Any updates done on the concept to CIEL at a later point of time will not be taken to the dictionary automatically. Users can update the concepts in a dictionary by manually removing the concept from the dictionary and adding it again. This updates the concept to its latest version in the HEAD of the dictionary. Users can create another version of the dictionary which will then have the latest version of the concept and can be subscribed to by an OpenMRS server.
Users can view all sources by clicking the sources tab(second tab at the top left corner of the page). This page contains a list of the Sources you have created. Users can also navigate to the tabs side by to see

The hierarchical relationship between concepts vs sources vs collections ?
For any concept either custom or belonging to an organization , they belong to a source ,
Collections are stacks or categories of sources from which do concept grouping.
