## Data Quality Dimensions

| Dimension | Definition | Example Issues |
|-----------|------------|----------------|
| Completeness | Required fields populated | Null emails, missing names |
| Accuracy | Data matches reality | Wrong addresses, typos |
| Consistency | Same data across systems | CRM ≠ Billing records |
| Timeliness | Data is current | Stale sync, delayed updates |
| Uniqueness | No unwanted duplicates | Duplicate contacts |
| Validity | Data meets format rules | Invalid emails, bad dates |

## Validation Rules

| Rule Type | Examples |
|-----------|----------|
| Format | Email regex, phone format, postal codes |
| Range | Age 0-150, price > 0 |
| Reference | FK exists, valid enum values |
| Business | State matches postal code, plan matches features |
| Cross-field | End date > start date, total = sum of parts |
