Key Definitions

Missing Data: Missing data is defined to mean data where the answer is data not collected, is null or blank, or where the entire form or table record on which that field resides is completely absent.
Latest Project Stay Only: This report should use each relevant client’s latest project stay (i.e., latest program enrollment).

Running the Report

Report Location

The report is found in the HUD section of the Report Library. There is also an Admin version available in the Administrator section.

Who Can Run the Report

Anyone can run this report, but the returned information will be limited based on the user's access rights.

Parameters

Switch Access Agency(ies)

To meet customer needs, an additional feature has been added to the HMIS Data Quality Report. This feature is designed to allow a user to generate the report for programs from multiple agencies. Some ESG grants require this capability. The ability is dependent on the access rights of the user. In other words, the user must have access to more than one agency.

The list of agencies will include the user's primary or home agency, followed by other agencies to which the user has access.
