Data Integrity Dashboard:

Analytics can be a useful tool to help us pinpoint where an organization’s data collection methods are failing. Using Analytics we can build dashboards which show empty fields, unattached records, and then link directly to the incomplete CRM record so that the missing data can be quickly resolved. Build out the following reports in a separate dashboard:

1. A table, with hyperlinks to the CRM records, of all Contacts without a favorite color (HINT: think formula columns)
2. A table, with hyperlinks to the CRM records, of all Contacts without a retail department
3. A KPI Widget count of the # of contacts missing both a Fav Color and a Retail Department
4. A table, with hyperlinks to the CRM records, of all Deals with a Closing Date before today (this means it probably hasn’t been updated in a while. Need to follow up)
5. Lists of “Unattached Contacts”
   • Contacts not tied to an Account (if any). Include hyperlink to the record
6. List of “Unattached Deals” (if any)
   • Deals not tied to an Account. Include hyperlink to the records
