Methods, systems, and computer program products for generating data quality indicators for relationships in a database
First Claim
1. A method for generating data quality indicators for relationships, wherein relationships are established between a customer and a business, in a database, comprising:
- comparing, by a computer based system for generating the data quality indicators for the relationships, for each relationship in a set of relationships, data associated with the respective relationship and corresponding data obtained from an industry database to generate a match confidence code for each relationship in the set of relationships, wherein the set of relationships includes multiple relationships obtained from a database;
determining, by the computer based system, a link confidence code for the customer, wherein the link confidence code comprises an indication of the quality of the linking between the customer and the set of relationships based on the generated match confidence code for each relationship in the set of relationships and internal information associated with each relationship in the set of relationships, wherein the link confidence code is distinct from the match confidence code; and
providing, by the computer based system, at least one of the link confidence code for the customer and the match confidence code for each relationship in the set of relationships linked to the customer.

Abstract
The disclosed methods, systems, and computer-program products allow a business to generate data quality indicators for relationships in a database. In an embodiment, one or more relationships linked to a customer are retrieved from a database to form a set of relationships. A match confidence code is generated for each relationship based on a score generated by the comparison of customer data associated with the respective relationship and corresponding customer data obtained from an external industry database. A link confidence code is subsequently determined for the customer based on a score generated by the scores used to define the match confidence code for each relationship in the set of relationships and on internal data associated with each relationship in the set of relationships. The link confidence code for the customer and the match confidence codes and the respective scores for the set of relationships may be provided to an end user of the database in order to improve decisions made by the end user at the customer level.

9. A system for generating data quality indicators for relationships, wherein relationships are established between a customer and a business, in a database, comprising:
-
a processor for generating the data quality indicators for relationships; and a memory in communication with the processor, the memory for storing a plurality of processing instructions for directing the processor to; compare, for each relationship in a set of relationships, data associated with the respective relationship and corresponding data obtained from an industry database to generate a match confidence code for each relationship in the set of relationships, wherein the set of relationships includes multiple relationships obtained from a database; determine a link confidence code for the customer, wherein the link confidence code comprises an indication of the quality of the linking between the customer and the set of relationships based on the generated match confidence code for each relationship in the set of relationships and internal information associated with each relationship in the set of relationships, wherein the link confidence code is distinct from the match confidence code; and provide, at least one of the link confidence code for the customer and the link confidence code for each relationship in the set of relationships linked to the customer. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon non-transitory sequences of instruction, the sequences of instruction including instruction which, in response to execution by a computer based system for generating data quality indicators for relationships, causes the computer based system to perform the operations to generate the data quality indicators for relationships in a database, wherein relationships are established between a customer and a business, comprising:
-
comparing, by the computer based system, for each relationship in a set of relationships, data associated with the respective relationship and corresponding data obtained from an industry database to generate a match confidence code for each relationship in the set of relationships, wherein the set of relationships includes multiple relationships obtained from a database; determining, by the computer based system, a link confidence code for the customer, wherein the link confidence code comprises an indication of the quality of the linking between the customer and the set of relationships based on the generated match confidence code for each relationship in the set of relationships and internal information associated with each relationship in the set of relationships, wherein the link confidence code is distinct from the match confidence code; and providing, by the computer based system, at least one of the link confidence code for the customer and the link confidence code for each relationship in the set of relationships linked to the customer. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
