# Apply data quality rules on data quality assessment

You can run a data quality assessment project to examine the quality of existing data.

You can do a data quality assessment, for example, if you:

- Have implemented a change in the Data Quality Studio configuration and want to make sure existing data is in line with this change.
- Have imported data without applying data quality policies.
- Want to periodically check the quality level of your data.

As a data owner, you can review and process data quality assessment results. A data owner can be a:

- General data owner who can review and process quality assessment results for all companies.
- Company-specific data owner who can review and process quality assessment results only for an assigned company.

For each failed validation rule or duplicate check rule, a separate entry is created in the **Quality assessment exceptions log**.

The options you must review and solve quality assessment results depend on the origin of the found issues:

- Validation rule not met.
- Duplicate check finds possible duplicate records.
