Läbitöödatud

Läbitöödatud is an Estonian adjective used to describe something that has undergone complete processing or passed through all required stages in a workflow. It is most commonly applied to data, documents, or tasks that have been processed, validated, and are considered ready for the next step, such as analysis, storage, or publication.

In practice, läbitöödatud can refer to läbitöödatud andmed (data that has been cleaned, transformed, and validated), läbitöödatud aruanne (a report that has been generated and checked), or läbitöödatud vorm (a form that has been processed and approved). The term helps distinguish items that are finished from those that are raw, in progress, or archived, and it signals readiness for downstream actions within a system or process.

Usage of the term is common in information technology, data management, and administrative contexts, especially where data integrity and workflow tracking are important. The exact meaning can vary slightly between organizations, with some preferring related terms such as töödeldud (processed) or valideeritud (validated) to describe similar states.

Etymology and conceptually related terms reflect Estonian tendencies to combine prefixes like läbi- (through, completed) with past participles to denote stage readiness. While läbitöödatud is widely understood in professional contexts, its interpretation may depend on internal procedures and data governance policies within a given organization.
