Using Responsibilities on Data
Assigning responsible persons to data that flows within an organization offers several advantages:
• Track the progress of data design. See Data Validation Workflow.
• Communicate and collaborate on data: requests to update or validate data can be sent to the designated managers. They then receive a notification and follow their tasks in Hopex. See Accessing Notifications.
• Ensure data traceability. See Data Lineages.
• Evaluate the data, directly as an expert, or through an evaluation campaign, followed by action plans if necessary. See Data Quality.
For this purpose Hopex Data Architecture offers different default roles, such as Data Owner or Data Quality Manager.
Roles Applicable to Data

• Data Owner: this is the authority who decides on data access and use. The data owner can be the data designer, one of its users or a third party. The owner of the data may be the designer of the data, one of its users or a third party.
Data stewards can ask data owners to check or complete the value of a field, for example to correct a data quality defect.
