Business Documentation
Business documentation refers to the systematic creation, management, and maintenance of written materials that describe business processes, requirements, policies, and systems. It serves as a formal record for communication, compliance, training, and decision-making within an organization. This includes documents like business requirements documents (BRDs), functional specifications, user manuals, process flows, and project plans.
Developers should learn business documentation to bridge the gap between technical implementation and business needs, ensuring software aligns with organizational goals and user expectations. It is essential in roles involving requirements gathering, project management, or stakeholder communication, such as in agile development, enterprise software projects, or regulatory compliance scenarios like finance or healthcare.
