Main Description

The business requirements concerning the information state what information - about which business objects - and in which form - automated or manual - are required to execute and finish a business process. This usually takes the form of a conceptual data requirement, e.g. for this process xyz information about the customer identification, the delivery address and an indication about the credibility of the customer is required to decide on whether the order can be accepted directly. The implementation should give guidance on how this information should be made available. For the customer credibility a paper black list could be used or whether this information should available on the operators screen. In a later activity this requirement will be detailed in how these business requirements should be interpreted in terms of a more exact data definition.
