Words, compound words or multi-word expressions that in business context are given specific meanings—these may deviate from the meanings the same words have in other contexts and in everyday language.

OpenReference Terms are based on consensus agreement of our contributors. Specific industries may give a different meaning to a Term. OpenReference intends to provide the meaning (definition) that is acceptable to a majority of industries. A reference to industry specific deviations may be included.
