DATA QUALITY · Workflow idea

Review authorized database changes, destination list fields, and proposed record updates with the source, context, and next decision in view.

For authorized work involving authorized database changes, destination list fields, and proposed record updates, prepare a traceable comparison of recent source changes and destination records for a data owner. A field mapping or delayed update can expose or overwrite information. Confirm system ownership and data purpose, minimize synchronized fields, test duplicates and deletions, protect credentials and logs, and require an owner to approve live changes and review exceptions. Explain information use and retention, obtain required consent, respect source and reuse rights, verify important details, and keep external or consequential actions under human approval.

Keep in mind

A field mapping or delayed update can expose or overwrite information. Confirm system ownership and data purpose, minimize synchronized fields, test duplicates and deletions, protect credentials and logs, and require an owner to approve live changes and review exceptions.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Define permitted inputs and retention

Document purpose, fields, source, destination, access, and deletion timing.

Test matching and calculation rules

Check samples, duplicates, edge cases, time periods, and conflicting values.

Keep sensitive details out of broad reports

Restrict access and include only information each approved recipient needs.

Require owner approval for live changes

Keep production updates, merges, exports, and consequential conclusions approval-gated.
