# Text and Claims Management Overview

PromoMats provides the ability to create and manage reusable text assets through the _Text Asset_ (`annotation_keywords__sys`) object.

The _Text Asset_ object includes the following standard objects to manage data:

  * The _Claim_ (`claims__v`) object type contains all the information for an individual claim, including the product, country, and match text. Claims are used in link annotations, particularly Suggested Links.
  * The _Reusable Text_ (`reusable_text__v`)  object type contains information related to reusable text assets, including match text, product, country, and reusable text type. _Reusable Text Assets_ can be used in [Content Modules](/en/lr/68612/).
  * The _Match Text Variation_ (`match_text_variation__sys`) object is a child of the _Text Asset_ object and contains a variation of the asset's match text. Each _Text Asset_ record can have up to nine (9) associated _Match Text Variation_ records.
  * The _Text Asset Target_ (`annotation_keyword_targets__sys`) allows an asset to be associated with multiple _Link Targets_.
  * The _Link Target_ (`link_target__sys`) contains information for link destinations, including target type and document information. Vault automatically creates one _Link Target_ for each document version with a type, subtype, or classification that is enabled as a suggested link target.

      <p><strong>Important</strong>: <em>Text Asset Target</em> and <em>Link Target</em> are system managed objects that are intended to operate behind the scenes. Users should not have direct access to them, and Admins are strongly advised not to add them to the Claim detail page layout as related object fields or to edit these two objects in any way, including by adding, removing, or renaming fields.</p>

The _Text Asset_ object (`annotation_keywords__sys`) contains the following standard fields:

  * **Name**: Vault generates this field automatically.
  * **Match Text**: The exact text of the claim; for example, "Preferred by more dentists." The _Match Text_ must be between 20 and 1500 characters. This text must match the text of the reference document exactly. For example, a _Text Asset_ with the _Match Text_ "Cholecap works faster" will match to a document with the text "Cholecap works faster than competitors" but not to one with the text "Cholecap works quicker."
  * **Category**: The type of claim; for example, efficacy or safety. Admins can configure values for this picklist according to their team's needs.
  * **Primary Product**: This is an object reference field where Admins can select the _Product_ associated with the text asset.
  * **Primary Country**: This is an object reference field where Admins can select the _Country_ where the text asset is used.
  * **Indication / Disease**: This is an object reference field where Admins can select the _Indication_ for which the text asset is approved. Admins can configure values for this picklist according to their team's needs. By default, the selectable values are filtered based on the _Primary Product_ value, using the _Product Indication Join_ (`product_indication_join__v`) object.
  * **Language**: This is an object reference field where Admins can select the text asset's language.
  * **Product Family**: This is an object reference field where Admins can select the _Product Family_ approved for the text asset.
  * **Product Form**: This is an object reference field where Admins can select the specific _Product Form_ for this text asset.
  * **Product Variant**: This is an object reference field where Admins can select the specific _Product Variant_ for this text asset.

Admins can add [additional fields](/en/lr/15057/) to the _Text Asset_ object and configure [object relationships](/en/lr/28740/) according to their team's needs. 

##  About Matching Fields {#matching-fields}

Vault uses matching fields to match Text Asset records to documents.

  * Vault matches _Text Assets_ using the _Primary Country_ (`country__v`) and _Primary Product_ (`product__v`) fields. When manually linking to records, these filters are optional.
  * _Primary Country_ and _Primary Product_ are required on both documents and _Text Assets_ for Vault to match them via Auto-Linking.
  * Vault supports _Text Assets_ related to multiple products and countries via the corresponding join object records. For example, if a document has a _Primary Country_ value of "United States" and a _Primary Product_ value of "Natevba", Vault attempts to match it to _Text Assets_ that an Admin previously associated with that product and country via join relationships.
  * _Product Family_, _Product Form_, and _Product Variant_ are also used for Auto-Linking and are also available as filters when manually linking _Text Assets_.
  * Vault only matches documents to _Text Assets_ in the _Approved_ or default steady state.

## About Claims

_Claims_ allow [users to automate the generation](/en/lr/57395/) of reference links on claim statements in promotional materials. [Admins can configure](/en/lr/57379/) claims and associated references, allowing users to create four types of link annotations: Suggested Links, Approved Links, Auto-Accepted Links, and Claim Links.

## About Reusable Text
Organizations often reuse previously approved content across many channels. With _Reusable Text Assets_, you can create text snippets for use in copy, headlines, summaries, objectives, and more. You can also use _Reusable Text Assets_ in [Content Modules](/en/lr/68612/).
