DATA QUALITY · Workflow idea

Keep authorized report requests, approved spreadsheet fields, date windows, and proposed summaries accurate, proportionate, and accountable to a person.

For an authorized purpose, prepare a source-linked report for the requester and data owner to check before delivery. A form request does not grant access to every dataset, and a summary can expose or misstate private records. Verify requester permissions and purpose, use minimum necessary fields, reconcile calculations and dates, protect the export and recipient list, and require the data owner to approve the exact report and destination. 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.
