DATA QUALITY · Workflow idea

Make authorized business records, corresponding service data, and possible drift or missing values easier to review before information is shared or changed.

For an authorized purpose, prepare a source-linked discrepancy list for a data owner to investigate. Different timestamps, identifiers, or update rules can make valid records appear inconsistent. Confirm authority and matching criteria, validate a sample against original sources, protect personal fields and access credentials, distinguish missing data from confirmed errors, and require the data owner to approve every merge or live correction. Use only necessary information, explain retention, respect consent and source rights, verify material details, and keep external or consequential actions under accountable 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

Different timestamps, identifiers, or update rules can make valid records appear inconsistent. Confirm authority and matching criteria, validate a sample against original sources, protect personal fields and access credentials, distinguish missing data from confirmed errors, and require the data owner to approve every merge or live correction.

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.

Keep exploring

Review standardized CSV imports

Prepare a cleaned CSV copy with consistent formats and a report of proposed corrections. Keep the result accurate, appropriately private, and ready for an accountable person to review.
