Reference Tables

Reference Tables

In the Analyst tool, you can link a business term with a reference table. You can view the reference table from Metadata Manager when you view the business term.
For example, a business analyst creates a report on a data warehouse that contains data migration results. The analyst needs to verify that the state value for the customer address contains valid values. The analyst creates a reference table that describes the mapping between possible values for the state and the valid value. In the Analyst tool, the analyst associates the reference table URL to the business term that defines the customer information.
To view the reference table from Metadata Manager, view the business term, and click the reference table URL.
