INTERNAL
ERROR REPORTING
SYSTEM
Target Users
Internal use – employees
Background
Data for new launch projects were input into the system via manual entry and data scrapping. As such, there are many inevitable errors such as typo errors, data redundancy and inconsistency for both text and image assets. This is likely going to be a recurring problem.
The data team is constantly overloaded with ad-hoc error and bugs fixes request from various departments. There is also a number of duplicated reports as there is no way to check what has been reported and the status of the fixes.
The Proposal
To ease the workload from the data team, I propose that we decentralise the task of error reporting/correction by crowdsourcing it internally. Essentially, everyone within the organisation can:
-
Flag out data inconsistency and discrepancy
-
Correct simple data entry mistakes
-
Report system bugs
-
Tag and retag images
-
Have visibility on the status of all backlog error reports
Proposed System Flow
For internal users only. Restricted access, sign-in required.
