DATA QUALITY · Workflow idea

Make business figures easier to explore without exposing private rows or inventing a cause.

For a team with an authorized purpose, prepare a source-linked answer to a business data question using only an approved set of spreadsheet fields. Sheets may mix confidential, personal, and stale values, and a plausible explanation is not proof of causation. Confirm access and minimum field scope, validate calculations and dates, keep individual records private, label uncertainty, and require an analyst or data owner to approve conclusions and any shared report. Explain personal-data use and retention, obtain required consent, respect source and reuse rights, verify important details, and keep external or consequential actions under explicit human approval.

The handoff

A private approved spreadsheet measures, clear field definitions, and proposed answers to business questions review draft with source checks, uncertainty notes, and human approval status.

Keep in mind

Sheets may mix confidential, personal, and stale values, and a plausible explanation is not proof of causation. Confirm access and minimum field scope, validate calculations and dates, keep individual records private, label uncertainty, and require an analyst or data owner to approve conclusions and any shared report.

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, date boundaries, and conflicting values.

Keep sensitive details out of broad reports

Restrict exports and notices, and omit unnecessary personal information.

Require owner approval for live changes

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