2.4 Create a Data Quality Group
Data Quality Groups facilitate the logical grouping of Data Quality (DQ) definitions and allow scheduling their execution.
Capabilities in the 23.2.1 Release:
- Ability to create Custom DQ Groups based on either:
- A specific Entity
- An Existing DQ Group
- Ability to map the following types of rules to a group:
- Seeded DQ Rules
- Published Custom DQ Rules
- Unpublished Custom DQ Rules (only from the same action)
Note:
- A Custom DQ Group can only be created using rules from the same entity.
- Editing a Custom DQ Group only updates the rule mapping—no rules are created or deleted.
- Custom DQ Groups can be:
- Edited in Draft, Returned, or Published status.
- Deleted in Draft or Returned status.
