Abstract

The effective use of metadata can offer end users an improved understanding and greater level of assurance during the Business Intelligence (BI) report analysis process. This paper reports key findings from a case study that investigates critical end-user metadata issues in a large Australian organization. The findings led to the development of an end-user metadata model on object (report and cube) and element (term and column) levels, which can support effective BI use and potentially increase user satisfaction at the case organization. The adoption and use of BI applications by business stakeholders may be improved by incorporating the end-user metadata model.
