  2. When the cleansing process is completed, review statistics in the Profiler tab. The Source Statistics provide the number of records processed, number of records that are found to be correct, number of records that DQS corrects, number of records that have changes suggested by DQS, and the number of records that are invalid. In the list box to the right, you can see the corrected values, suggested values, and the completeness (the extent to which the data is present) and accuracy (the extent to which the data can be used for intended purposes) of values for each domain involved in the cleansing process.
