Exception Management Overview

You can review exceptions and then correct the exceptions in the Analyst tool. Exceptions are records in a data set that contain unresolved data quality issues. The records might contain errors, or the records might contain duplicate information.
A task identifies a set of records and the operations that you can perform to resolve the data quality issues in the exception records. A task step represents the type of work that a user performs on the records the task instance.
When you log in to the Analyst tool, you can view a list of your tasks in the My Tasks panel. The My Tasks panel appears in the Start workspace. The My Tasks panel is your Inbox for tasks that you receive.
Select a task, and work on the records that it contains. After you view or edit a record in a task, you can update the status of the record to indicate whether to store the record in the database. When you complete work on a task, the Analyst tool removes the task from your Inbox.
