Define QA Code for Fam_Member records

Objective:


Develop a completeness code for Fam_Member.dbf records.

Conclusion:




FAM_MEMBER Table RCDSTAT Code Values

Condition Assumed Alive Assumed Dead
incomplete Given Name with no DOB or Photo 11 15
valid Given name with no DOB or Photo 6 10
valid Given name with DOB (Year) no Photo 3 7
valid Given name with DOB no Photo 2 6
valid Given name with DOB and Photo 0 4

If the family member accounted for is assumed to be alive
then the worst score for that record would be
for incomplete Given Name with no DOB or Photo
5 + 4 + 2 = 11
With valid Given name the score would be 6

If the family member accounted for is assumed to be dead
then points would also accrue for
no RIP date and no Obit
3 + 1 bringing total to 15

A record with all of these conditions but has valid Given Name
earns 5 points back dropping the score to 10
This is draft but it could be a promising concept
