- Shared Data: Reference and Master Data must be managed so that they are shareable across the organization.
- Ownership: Reference and Master Data belong to the organization, not to a particular application or department. Because they are widely shared, they require a high level of stewardship.
- Stewardship: Business Data Stewards are accountable for controlling and ensuring the quality of Reference Data.
- Quality: Reference and Master Data Management require ongoing Data Quality Monitoring and Governance.
- Controlled Change:
- At a given point of time, Master Data values should represent the organization’s best understanding of what is accurate and current. Matching rules that change values should be applied with caution and oversight. Any identifier merged or split should be reversible.
- Changes to Reference Data values should follow a defined process; changes should be approved and communicated before they are implemented.
- Authority: Master Data values should be replicated only from the system of record. A system of reference may be required to enable sharing of Master Data across an organization.
