Completeness:

 Metric: Percentage of missing values.


 Calculation: (Number of non-null values / Total number of expected values) * 100.

values.

Accuracy:

 Metric: Error rate or percentage of inaccurate records.


 Calculation: (Number of inaccurate records / Total number of records) * 100.

Consistency:

 Metric: Percentage of inconsistent data.


 Calculation: (Number of inconsistent records / Total number of records) * 100.
 Description: Measures the degree to which data is consistent across different
datasets or sources.

Validity:

 Metric: Percentage of valid values.


 Calculation: (Number of valid values / Total number of values) * 100.
 Description: Assesses the proportion of data values that conform to predefined rules
or standards.

Timeliness:

 Metric: Time lag between data creation and availability for analysis.

 Metric: Percentage of duplicate records.


 Calculation: (Number of duplicate records / Total number of records) * 100.
 Description: Measures the extent to which identical records exist in the dataset.
Uniqueness:
 Metric: Percentage of unique values.

Conformity to Business Rules:

 Metric: Adherence to business rules and logic.


 Calculation: Number of records conforming to business rules / Total number of
records.
 Description: Assesses whether data aligns with specific business rules or logic.

Data Profiling Scores:
