115 | | To make the process of mapping applications together easier and more reliable, an organization can make a ''common data dictionary'' for all applications to use. This can take considerable effort just to create, but pays off when connecting another application to the Confederation of Applications. A major complication is revealed when two organizations, each with its own common dictionary, have to communicate. |
116 | | |
117 | | ISO 15926 makes this situation easier in three ways: |
118 | | |
119 | | * ISO 15926 is a ''public'' dictionary that all applications can map to. |
120 | | * ISO 15926 is ''extensible'' so that the public dictionary can adapt to new developments. |
121 | | * ISO 15926 is designed to be extensible ''quickly'' so new items can be used right away. |
