The human-friendly name shown for this concept in the user interface, used instead of the technical name to improve readability and understanding. Display name	IBAN format
Informal and comprehensive human-readable definition of a concept. Description	This category includes data quality rules that verify IBAN (International Bank Account Number) values follow the correct format. A valid IBAN format consists of a two-letter country code, two check digits, and a country-specific Basic Bank Account Number (BBAN) of up to 30 alphanumeric characters. The total length and structure vary by country, with each country having specific requirements for their BBAN component. Format validation checks for correct length, proper positioning of country code and check digits, and adherence to allowed character types. This validation catches common errors like missing characters, extra spaces, incorrect country codes, or use of invalid characters. Proper IBAN formatting is essential for successful international payment processing. This rule supports the Representational_consistency dimension by ensuring IBANs are structurally correct.

Data quality rule	The country a linked concept is active or generally relevant for. Country scope	Informal and comprehensive human-readable definition of a concept. Description	Criticality<br/>Specifies how critical of the violation of a data quality rule.<br/>ERROR: Indicates a critical data quality rule violation that requires correction.<br/>WARNING: Indicates a potential data quality issue that should be reviewed.<br/>INFO: Indicates an informational finding with no immediate impact on data quality. Criticality	Rule release status<br/>The release status in terms of development progress or maturity of a data quality rule.<br/>IDEA: Initial rule definition that documents a business requirement but is not yet active in services.<br/>PLANNED: Rule is specified and scheduled for implementation, but not yet active in services.<br/>DRAFT: Rule concept is being prepared or refined but is not yet finalized for implementation or execution.<br/>HYPERCARE: Rule is newly released and under increased observation to ensure stable behaviour and correct results.<br/>RELEASED: Rule has passed verification and is actively executed in productive CDQ services.<br/>DEACTIVATED: Rule is temporarily removed from the active rule set because it needs correction or clarification before re release.<br/>BLOCKED: Rule cannot be released because something it depends on is missing, for example a data source or a clarification.<br/>ARCHIVED: Rule is permanently retired and no longer maintained or intended for future activation. Rule release status
IBAN format invalid REPRESENTATIONAL_CONSISTENCY	WORLD (World)	This rule checks whether an IBAN follows a structure that is possible anywhere in the world, testing the value against every combination of alphanumeric characters used across all countries. Because the check is deliberately broad, it may accept a structure that is valid in one country but not in the country where the IBAN was actually issued. If the rule does fail, however, the IBAN is definitely wrong.	ERROR	IDEA(2020-01-01)
