CRM Data Quality Report

They are often used by sales and marketing managers to ensure that data that is manually entered or uploaded to the CRM system is correct and consistent. Some of the key functionality in this type of control report is that it uses yellow colors to highlight fields with missing information. It is also a convenient way to find information that is wrong or incomplete. This type of report can be used for data such as leads, opportunities, contacts and accounts.
