DATA QUALITY · Workflow idea

Make a practical first pass at authorized contact records, proposed phone and email normalization, and date-format changes while leaving judgment with people.

For an authorized purpose, prepare reversible field corrections for a data owner to inspect. Normalization can change a valid number, address, locale-specific date, or record match. Confirm data authority and purpose, limit access and retention, retain original values for comparison, test edge cases and duplicates, provide correction handling, and require a data owner to approve bulk changes before they are applied. Explain personal-data use and retention, obtain required consent, respect source and reuse rights, verify important details, and keep external or consequential actions under human approval.

  2. Validate matches and calculations

    Check identifiers, mappings, units, dates, duplicates, and totals against original records.

  3. Flag gaps and conflicts

    Do not turn missing, stale, estimated, or inconsistent values into verified facts.

Keep in mind

Normalization can change a valid number, address, locale-specific date, or record match. Confirm data authority and purpose, limit access and retention, retain original values for comparison, test edge cases and duplicates, provide correction handling, and require a data owner to approve bulk changes before they are applied.

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 representative records, duplicates, edge cases, time periods, and exceptions.

Keep sensitive details out of broad reports

Restrict exports and include only information each approved recipient needs.

Require owner approval for live changes

Keep production updates, merges, and consequential conclusions behind human review.
