When to use it, when not to

Use it

  • Use it when deals can be created without going through a company-first flow: quick-create shortcuts, imports, or integrations that post a deal without an associated company.
  • Use it alongside data-quality-007 (missing company on contact), since a deal's company gap often traces back to its primary contact never having one either.

Skip it

  • Do not use it on deal pipelines that are intentionally company-less, such as individual or consumer deals with no company entity, unless you filter by pipeline.
  • Do not use it expecting an automatic company creation or association. It flags the gap only.
