Quarterly Data Quality (QDQ) Clean Up and Reporting

The Quarterly Data Quality (QDQ) process for Quarter 3 of the Federal Fiscal Year 2020 is under way. Here are the things that you should know for this quarter.

Your data from July 1 to September 30 should be entered in HMIS now and you should be running your QDQ Reports.

Remember, you can run one report with multiple providers. This can save you time when running reports. If you have a large number of providers, you can have a Reporting Group made for your agency that contains all the providers you need. Click here to contact Helpdesk if you would like a Reporting Group made for your agency.

ICA suggests running the QDQ report in Excel. When you have multiple providers, you can then easily filter your Excel report for each provider when data clean-up is needed.

One clarification that should be noted regarding the providers that should be included in QDQ reporting: any agency with a provider whose project type is Other is encouraged to, but not required to, submit scores for QDQ.

As always, use the Data Corrections section of the Knowledge Base or contact Helpdesk with your QDQ questions. Click here to access the Knowledge Base Data Corrections section.
