The obligation to report is a standard part of commerce and government. If an individual is entrusted with something upon which everyone depends, then regular, timely reporting helps the stakeholders to maintain trust and feel comfortable. If for example people are transporting dangerous goods or conducting activities that result in toxic emissions, or exposing the organisation to financial loss, it is important that key aspects of the activity are monitored and reported efficiently and accurately. Problems begin when multiple reports or multiple data feeds are required from multiple agencies. 

Without efficient systems to check the inflow of data it is very difficult to determine whether all the sites are reporting or feeding data as required, and if not, which sites are problematic and in what way.

 
The Datalign compliance module allows organisations to set up dashboards that are customised for particular types of report or data feed. This allows administrators to immediately see which reports or data feeds have not come in, which ones are failing validation and which ones are producing valid data but showing results that are not within accepted tolerances. 
 
Because the compliance module is part of Datalign incoming data can also make use of workflow, event notifications, full text search, metadata management, federated administration controls, data lifecycle administration and all the other features you expect from your data management platform.
