Abstract

Business metadata plays a crucial role in increasing the data quality of information systems. Despite its importance, business metadata is primarily discussed from a technical perspective, while its business value is scarcely addressed. Therefore, this article aims at contributing to the further development of existing design approaches by explicitly accounting for the use cases of business metadata. In the course of this article a classification of use cases will be developed, which can be utilized when identifying the respective informational requirements a business metadata system needs to satisfy. A banking case is presented that demonstrates how this conceptual model has successfully been applied in practice.
