PURPOSE

This document explains how to add or update a term in the Data Glossary in Mister Connect.

PROCESS

1. Review the Data Glossary to see if the term you want to add is already in the glossary or if it needs updating. Some things to keep in mind:
   • The term may be referred to as something else (e.g., “Active Members” is also referred to as “Total Members” or “Total UWC Members”.) The Data Glossary does not need a separate definition for each term.
   • A portion of the term you want to add may already exist (e.g., you want to add “Membership Volume”, but “Volume” already exists).
   • Do not add terms with specific time periods in their title (e.g., “Membership Volume this year” cannot be added).
2. Complete the Mister Intel Feedback Form and provide the following information:
   • Name and alternate names
   • Definition
   • Formula
   • Example
   • Source
   • 
3. Once the Data Team receives the form, the information is added to the Master Spreadsheet. 
4. Each week, the Data Team notifies the Data Glossary Steering Team to review and approve new terms.
5. The Data Glossary Steering Team reviews the term/details and provides their feedback and/or approval.
6. Once the term and its details have been approved.
7. It is then submitted to Mister Connect by the Data Glossary Steering Team and added to the Data Glossary.
