In the system I didn't find where to change it, if so where is it?
In the database or XML file where can I add new values?

Can I leave the text free in the "subject Keyword" option when registering the item?

Files: /opt/dspace/config/controlled-vocabularies/*.*

Hi,

By default the Subject Keyword field is configured to use the "srsc.xml" controlled vocabulary as defined in the "subject" field in your "submission-forms.xml" on the backend: https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/blob/dspace-7_x/dspace/config/submission-forms.xml#L189-L202

The "srsc.xml" file is providing those various values and can be found in your config directory as well here: https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/blob/dspace-7_x/dspace/config/controlled-vocabularies/srsc.xml

You can turn off this controlled vocabulary by removing or commenting out the "<vocabulary>srsc</vocabulary>" tag in that submission-forms.xml configuration.  This would turn this field into a free text field.

More information on configuring the Submission UI can be found in the docs at https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSDOC7x/Submission+User+Interface   Especially take a look at the sections on the "submission-forms.xml" which is where you define the fields in each of the forms.

Hi!
Query: You can automatically translate the srsc.xml file into Spanish, for example
Thanks...
