UNDP will continue to leverage its own Atlas data quality dashboard' to proactively manage data errors and potential risks associated with unapplied deposits, matching exceptions, bank reconciliations and errors.

Quality metadata in order to enable users of the data to judge its fitness for purpose. A key element is a description of how each data point was created

Metadata should be prepared according to an agreed framework giving a proper description of what constitutes such data.
