# How to manage term templates for business glossary
1212

Microsoft Purview allows you to create a glossary of terms that are important for enriching your data. Each new term added to your Microsoft Purview Data Catalog Glossary is based on a term template that determines the fields for the term. This article describes how to create a term template and custom attributes that can be associated to glossary terms.
