===Example===
[[general_term:objective|Objective]] is that 95% of the telephone numbers in de customer file are [[data_quality_dimension/validity|valid]]. However, the front-end application doesn't check the [[data_concept/format|format]] of the telephone number. Therefore, it is uncertain if the customer always properly completes their telephone number. The [[general_term:effect|effect]] of this uncertainty can be, that the [[general_term:objective|objective]] will not be met.
