Kerry Peters talks about why companies postpone fixing bad data until phase two, the common data errors in workflows, the benefits of cleaning up and having correct data, and two actionable steps that organizations can start doing now.

Essential points covered in this episode:

✔️ Bad data is not impossible to correct. With Business Central, you can fix these four common mistakes:

• Wrong base unit of measure for inventory

• Wrong inventory costing method

• Incorrectly mapped posting groups

• Inaccurate dimensions

✔️ Having correct data is good for customers and teams. Duplicate records, data with wrong links, and missing data can create so much confusion and trouble. We want to have a reliable database, and having zero errors is possible with the right configurations.

✔️ Having correct data saves time. Any time you have a data error, you would need to spend time troubleshooting and finding other damages. You may have also increased IT tickets and caused delays in workflow processes.

✔️ Do these two things to fix your bad data. Start keeping a list of the type of errors you’re experiencing, how many are caused by bad data, and review how much time it took to solve each error. Be clear on your data standards that are to be filled out on Business Central to avoid generating errors down the line.
