DATA QUALITY · Workflow idea

Keep an important attachment findable without widening access or retaining it forever.

For authorized work involving authorized email attachments, selected archive folders, and proposed file records, prepare selected email attachments and source details for an approved archive location. Attachments may contain personal, confidential, or malicious content, and a folder can have broader access than the original email. Confirm authority and purpose, scan files safely, check destination permissions and naming, set retention, and require a records owner to approve archiving, onward sharing, or deletion. 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

Attachments may contain personal, confidential, or malicious content, and a folder can have broader access than the original email. Confirm authority and purpose, scan files safely, check destination permissions and naming, set retention, and require a records owner to approve archiving, onward sharing, or deletion.

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.

Keep exploring

Review document classification and filing

Help a document reach the right reviewer without filing sensitive material under a guess. Verify the source, protect relevant information, and keep consequential choices with an accountable person.

Review pricing anomalies

Surface a number worth checking without treating an outlier as a confirmed error. Verify the source, protect relevant information, and keep consequential choices with an accountable person.

Review weekly social performance reports

Make channel performance easier to review without overstating what an engagement metric means. Verify the source, protect relevant information, and keep consequential choices with an accountable person.
