(also transaction data, transaction information)
Transactional data is a type of data that contains variables derived from transactions, such as their date, time zone, or currency. Transactional data is not limited to financial transactions — it can be produced by workplace (like an email exchange), logistic (receipt of delivery), and other types of transactions.
Transactional data is one of three main types of enterprise data and interacts directly with the others — master data and analytical data. Transactional data is dependent on master data (the subjects and objects of the transactions — the parties and items involved) and may be analyzed to produce analytical data (useful values for decision making).
