Pyyntökohde

Pyyntökohde is a Finnish compound term meaning the object or target of a request. It refers to the item, person, data, or information that is being sought or asked for in a request or inquiry. The concept is used in administrative language and in the design of information systems to identify what the requester wants to obtain or examine.

The exact meaning of pyyntökohde can vary by context. In public administration, it may designate the specific document, record, or dataset that a citizen or organization requests. In data protection or information requests, the pyyntökohde could be the personal data or data category being accessed. In procurement or contracting, it can refer to the product, service, or project that is the subject of a bid or inquiry. In customer support, the pyyntökohde might be the user’s account, service, or feature they are asking to modify or receive.

Pyyntökohde is not a universally standardized term; its precise scope is defined by the field’s guidelines or the context of a particular form or system. It is often contrasted with pyyntö (the act of requesting) and kohde (the general target or object) and may appear in forms, workflows, or databases to clearly identify what is being requested. If a specific domain is in question, the intended meaning can be clarified by accompanying definitions or documentation.
