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    • Unpublished Custom DQ Rules (only from the same action)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.

Steps to Create a Data Quality Group:

  1. From the Inbox page, select an action in New or Returned status for which you want to create a DQ Group.
  2. Click Control Extensions from the left-hand side (LHS) menu.
  3. Click Create Group to open the group creation window.
  4. Enter Group Details:
    • Name: Enter the group name using alphanumeric characters and underscores (_) only.
    • Description: Provide details about the group.

      Note:

      The description field does not support new lines.
  5. Select the relevant Entity for the group.
  6. (Optional) Create from an Existing Group
    • If you want to create a new group based on an existing DQ Group, enable the Create Data Quality Group from an Existing DQ Group option.
    • Select the required group from the Copied from Data Quality Group drop-down list.
  7. Click + to link DQ rules for the selected entity.
  8. Select the required rules and click Link.
  9. Click Save to finalize the group creation. The Group Code is automatically generated, and the group appears in the Control Extensions page.
