This article explains all the ins and outs of the RV Job Results page features. For information about running and processing a Record Validation Job, see this article.

After running a Record Validation job on the RV Job page‍, you can view the details of the job results on the RV Job Results page, and process the validations. 

Review which data was validated (indicated in green   ) and decide to update those records with even better suggestions; make changes if a validation needs a decision on whether to keep it or not (amber  ); and inspect why record data could not be validated (red  ).
