Challenges associated with ERP Metadata

Finding and Accessing Metadata: the 'business-friendly' metadata from systems is not available in their standard relational database system catalogs. The metadata is stored within a series of data dictionary tables or concealed behind an API, making retrieval a complex endeavor.
-
Curating Metadata: systems have extensive and intricate data models, causing navigation to be problematic.
-
Utilizing Metadata with Other Products and Technologies: metadata required for the projects is difficult to utilize.
