Data quality rules

Data quality rule	Description	Criticality
Dummy post code detected (AU)	This data quality rule checks whether the post code comprises dubious patterns that may render the record incorrect. The patterns, selected specifically for Address/country/AU are the following: Regular expression/Mononumerical post code with delimeter Regular expression/Not available post code Regular expression/One digit multiplied several times post code Regular expression/Ordinal sequence of numbers Regular expression/Single digit post code Regular expression/Very long digits post code.	ERROR
Identifier Qualification (Business Number (Australia), Data source:AU.BR)	This data quality rule checks the congruency of the given identifier against the identifier maintained as reference for the Business Number (Australia)	INFO
Identifier format inaccurate (Australian Company Number (Australia))	The Australian Company Number (Australia) consists of 9 digits. There is a convention to display the SCN in the format XXX XXX XXX three blocks of three characters, each block separated by a blank. This is to assist readability and the inserted blanks do not form part of the ACN. This rule checks possible whitespaces, hyphens or dots that might be comprised in the identifier value in the places where they are not supposed to be. If there are any whitespaces, dots or hyphens then the rule is violated. This rule checks the syntax, i.e. format of the Australian Company Number (Australia) with respect to the format. Any deviation (i.e. white spaces where they are not specified) result in a violation.	INFO
Identifier format inaccurate (Business Number (Australia))	This rule checks the syntax, i.e. format of Australian Business Number (ABN) with respect to the reference format. Any deviation (i.e. white spaces where they are not specified) result in a violation. Australian Business Number (ABN) consists of 11 digits in the format: "99 999 999 999". This rule checks possible whitespaces, hyphens or dots that might be comprised in the identifier value. If there are any whitespaces in a places where no whitespace is expected to be, hyphens or dots then the rule is violated.	INFO
Identifier format invalid (Business Number (Australia))	The Australian Business Number (ABN) is a unique issued to all entities registered in the Australian Business Register (ABR). The 11 digit ABN is structured as a 9 digit identifier with two leading check digits. The leading check digits are derived using a modulus 89 (remainder after dividing by 89) calculation. This rule checks presence of exactly 9 digits and prefix without considering possible whitespaces, hyphens or dots that might be comprised in the identifier value. If there are less/more digits, unexpected non-digits characters then the rule is violated.	INFO
Identifier missing (Business Number (Australia))	Each legal entity in Australia should have a Business Number.	WARNING
Identifier unknown (Australian Business Number (Australia))	For a valid Business Number (Australia)	ERROR
Invalid checksum of ABN AU (Australia)	The 11 digit ABN is structured as a 9 digit identifier with two leading check digits. This rule checks whether the ABN is valid with respect to the checkdigits. The leading check digits are derived using a modulus 89 (remainder after dividing by 89) calculation. Format of the BNA looks like this: [ C1 C2 C3 C4 C5 C6 C7 C8 C9 C10 C11 ] M11 ( C1 - 1 ) + M10 x C2 + M9 x C3 + M8 x C4 + M7 x C5 + M6 x C6 + M5 x C7 + M4 x C8 + M3 x C9 + M2 x C10 + M1 x C11 MOD89=0 The set of weightings are: M11...M1 = (10,1,3,5,7,9,1113,15,17,19)	ERROR
Invalid checksum of ACN AU (Australia)	This rule checks the checksum of the Australian Company Number. The ACN is a nine digit number with the last digit being a check digit calculated using a modified modulus 10 calculation.	ERROR
Legal form invalid (Australia)	Each record should have legal form appropriate for the country.	INFO
Length of national bank Id invalid (Australia)	This rule checks whether the domestic bank id exceeds the maximum possible length in Australia	ERROR
Mandatory administrative area missing (Australia)	The administrative area (a top-level geographical or political area division in a country) is required (i.e. mandatory) for a complete physical touchpoint in Australia	ERROR
Mandatory locality missing (Australia)	The locality is mandatory for street addresses in Australia.	ERROR
Mandatory post code missing (Australia)	The post code is mandatory for street addresses in Australia.	ERROR
Mandatory thoroughfare missing (Australia)	The thoroughfare is mandatory for street addresses in Australia.	ERROR
Name Qualification (Business Number (Australia), Data source:AU.BR)	This data quality rule checks the congruency of the given name against the name maintained as reference for the Business Number (Australia)	INFO
Post code Qualification (Business Number (Australia), Data source:AU.BR)	This data quality rule checks the congruency of the given post code against the post code maintained as reference for the Business Number (Australia)	INFO
Post code format invalid (Australia)	This rule checks the post code format of Australia. Postal codes consist of a block of 4 digits. The first digit indicates the state or territory the second a zone and the final two the delivery office. Most municipalities, settlements or suburbs have a single own code. Post office boxes have different postal codes to street addresses, and large users may also have a unique code. A company can therefore possibly have two codes. The mailing address (post office box/large user) should in these cases be used in preference to the street address.	ERROR
Unallowed pattern in name detected (AU)	This data quality rule checks whether the name comprises dubious patterns that may render the record incorrect. The patterns, selected specifically for Address/country/AU are the following: Regular expression/One time vendor Regular expression/Aggregated payments Regular expression/No new orders Regular expression/Do not use duplicates note Regular expression/Reference to other record Regular expression/No use note Regular expression/Reference to new record Regular expression/Reference the former name Regular expression/Long number in name Regular expression/Duplicate record note Regular expression/Deletion note Regular expression/Dummy record note Regular expression/Sequence of digits Regular expression/Unsorted keywords Regular expression/Length of name .	WARNING
