Managing business terms

You can create business terms that represent your organization's terminology.

Some IBM Knowledge Catalog plans have limits on the number of terms that you can create.

Required permissions
To create, edit, or delete business terms, you must have this user permission:
- Access governance artifacts
Additionally, you must have one of these category collaborator roles in the primary category for the business term:
  • Admin
  • Owner
  • Editor
  • A custom role with the permission to create, edit, or delete business terms.

Open Governance > Business Terms, then click New business term and select one of the available options to create a new business term. Depending on how you create the terms, you can then decide to:

  • Save the business terms as a draft.
  • Send the business terms for approval. See Workflow.
