6 Common mistakes Coding errors
The value field should only contain numbers. It should not contain any other explanations. The numbers within the value field should not be specially formatted (e.g separator format) Do not insert manually any comma, spaces or equivalent. If the number contains alphanumerical characters it will be interpreted as text. It will be interpreted as NA and any former value for the defined record will be deleted and therefore lost within the database! Sept 2010 State of play Urban Audit

Brings an independent view to the assessment process Provides greater objectivity and credibility to the final result Three parties involved: the production unit, the peer reviewer and the Eurostat Quality Unit For the Urban Audit: Paul Vickers (ONS) = peer reviewer Sept 2010 State of play Urban Audit
