Entries are the primary method of providing Suggea content. Each Entry has a unique ID (Entry ID), which cannot change. Four primary properties of an Entry are

• An Entry Type , which determines what type of Entry it is (e.g. Question, Suggestion, Idea etc.)
• A Title, required field which provides a Title for the Entry
• A Summary, which can provide either an overview, or the whole content of the Entry if the Entry is simple.
• A Detail field, which allows HTML Rich Text content to be provided for the Entry.

Entries can be linked to Locations to provide content for that Location, similar to files in the file system. Any Location can have multiple Entries. Entries can also be linked as Solutions to other Entries. An Entry can be configured to be Location content only, a Solution only, or can be used to provide both functions. Entries can also be related to other Entries, which may have similar or related content.

Entries can be added by Suggea Users, within certain controls and limitations. An Entry may be added initially as content for a Location, or directly as a Solution to an Entry

An Entry can have the following types of Link added to it.
