Informal and comprehensive human-readable definition of a concept. Description	This category includes data quality rules that identify business partners missing legal form data when it should be present. Legal form indicates the legal structure of an entity (corporation, limited liability company, partnership, etc.) and is typically required for legal entities in most jurisdictions. The absence of legal form information creates problems for legal compliance, contract management, risk assessment, and regulatory reporting. While natural persons don't have legal forms, legal entities should always have this information specified. Missing legal form data indicates incomplete business partner records that need enrichment or correction. Proper legal form data is essential for understanding business partner types, legal relationships, and compliance requirements.

Legal form missing	WORLD (World)	In general, each business partner must have exactly one legal form. For example, a business partner can never be an Aktiengesellschaft and a Gesellschaft mit beschraenkter Haftung at the same time. However, business partners that are marked by a no legal form required category are valid also without a legal form value.	INFO	RELEASED(2020-01-01)
