CRM DATA QUALITY · Workflow idea

Keep company records aligned without merging distinct organizations or overwriting useful details.

For a team or individual with an authorized purpose, compare approved company rows with existing records and prepare proposed additions or updates for a data owner. Similar names can refer to different organizations, and an incorrect match can corrupt business records. Validate unique identifiers and source dates, preserve original values and correction history, restrict exports, and require the record owner to approve each create, merge, or update. Keep personal and confidential details limited to approved people, verify key facts and rights, and require an accountable person to approve the exact result before it is shared or acted on.

02 / The work

5 tasks.
One useful outcome.

Compare approved company rows with existing records and prepare proposed additions or updates for a data owner.

  1. Confirm permission, purpose, and data scope

    Verify the requester may use the selected records for this task.

  2. Check source, schema, and record matching

    Validate field meaning, units, identifiers, dates, and duplicates against the source.

  3. Flag extraction and calculation uncertainty

    Review missing, malformed, estimated, or out-of-range values rather than treating them as facts.

  4. Protect sensitive fields and exports

    Minimize copied information and restrict results to their approved audience.

  5. Approve writes, conclusions, and sharing

    Have the data owner confirm live updates, interpretations, and external distribution.

Something to build on.
