KC-D13

· Company claim

· Signal

In master data management, a golden record is the single authoritative version of an entity, assembled by matching and merging records from several systems.

What this record is

This is one entry in The Knowledge Company claim register: a statement the company publishes, the source it was checked against, the date of the last check and the date that check expires. When the stale-after date passes, the status degrades on its own until a person re-verifies the claim. Nothing is marked verified automatically.
