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.
