Business Glossary

What this covers

The Glossary panel lets modellers curate business definitions for model terms. Entries can be user-authored, generated by an LLM bootstrap pass, approved, rejected, hidden, or marked for review. The glossary improves model documentation and gives the agent safer vocabulary for answering business questions.

Entry lifecycle

StatusMeaning
Pending reviewProposed by automation or import and waiting for a modeller decision.
ApprovedAccepted definition that can be shown to users and agent workflows.
RejectedNot suitable for the model, but retained for audit and review history.

Each edit creates a new version on the server. Provenance is kept so reviewers can distinguish user-authored entries from LLM proposals and heuristic fallbacks.

Visibility

Visibility controls whether an entry is shown, hidden, or held for review. Use hide for terms that are technically present but not useful to business users. Use review when the definition is probably useful but needs validation from a domain owner.

Bootstrap recommendations

The bootstrap action proposes glossary entries from the model's dimensions, measures, aliases, descriptions, and available LLM configuration. Treat bootstrap output as a draft. Approve entries only after checking the definition, context notes, synonyms, and confidence.
