Data Quality

The purpose of the Data Quality dashboard is to allow the user to visualize and analyze potential data quality issues related to systems, accounts, identities, managers, resources, assignments, and contexts.

Overview​

This dashboard contains widgets that display valuable data that can help spot potential issues: for instance, the percentage and total number of identities without a context or resources without assignments, the list of orphan resources or accounts, or the list of accounts pending deprovisioning.

It is divided into seven tabs:

You can switch between the tabs by clicking on the tab names at the top of the dashboard:

Tabs on the Data Quality dashboard
tip

You can either browse all tabs to get a high-level overview of potential issues – or apply specific filtering (for example, by context or system) early on and analyze data from this perspective.

The following sections describe navigation and filtering capabilities available within this dashboard, as well as the data model that this dashboard is based on. Read on to learn how to explore the data in depth while selecting the exact navigation capabilities that best suit your needs, or combining them for a more comprehensive analysis.

Jump-to dashboards​

Some widgets are jumpable: when you click them, you can jump to another dashboard that provides more details about the data displayed in the widget. This allows you to explore the data in depth and gain deeper insights into potential data quality issues.

You can recognize jumpable widgets by a number of characteristics:

  • All jumpable widgets have a jumpability icon in the top left corner of the widget.

    Jumpable widget icon
  • In widgets in the form of charts or cards, the numbers displayed within them can be clickable.

    example

    For example, on the Identities tab, the widget showing the total number of accounts is clickable and jumpable.

    Total number of identities widget

    When you click it, you can see a dashboard that shows more details on identities grouped by category, status, validity state, context type, and more:

  • In widgets in the form of tables, some columns contain bright blue clickable numbers displayed within them.

    example

    Following the previous example, on the Identities tab, the widget showing identities per category and status contains bright blue clickable numbers in the # Identities column. When you click any of these numbers, you will jump to the Identity details dashboard that shows more information about identities with a particular category and status.

Filtering options​

The filtering options available within this dashboard can help you narrow down the data for the purposes of analysis. While you browse through one tab, you can filter the data displayed there with the use of filters in the right pane.

For instance, in the Account Compliance filter in the right pane, you can click Include all, and select a particular compliance option in order to only see the accounts with that compliance status on the tab:

Account Compliance filter in the right pane with Include all selected

In the same way, you can also decide to only view a particular resource type, account system name, identity status, and more.

For more information on the filtering options available within this dashboard, read below:

Filtering options

The information displayed on each tab changes according to the filtering that you apply. For example, if you select a particular system name or identity country while viewing one tab, the information on other tabs will reflect the same filtering (until you change or clear it).

  • You can enable filtering by selecting an item in the right pane:

    Right pane filter options
  • You can also select an item in a table by right-clicking it and clicking Select:

    Select item in table
  • You can edit filters by clicking on the pencil icon, which appears when you hover over the top right corner of the rectangle:

Data update cycle and date-based analysis​

The data displayed on the Data Quality dashboard reflects the state of the last successful build, which occurs every day after midnight; it is not streamed live. For more information, see the introduction to dashboards: Omada Identity Analytics – Data model.

However, some jump-to dashboards (JTDs) or widgets available through the Data Quality dashboard use a hybrid data model that combines data from the regular daily-built data model with data sourced directly from Enterprise Server (ES) to supplement any gaps. This means JTD data may reflect more recent changes than what is shown on the main dashboards.

Open the dropdown menu to see the list of JTDs that use this hybrid data model.

JTDs that use a hybrid data model

  • Accounts Details Focus
  • Accounts Details Reasons
  • Accounts Multiple Details
  • Assignments Details
