How to calculate it

Divide the number of records with all key fields populated by the total number of records, and multiply by 100.

For example, if 80,000 of 100,000 records have all the required fields, the score is 80%.

Choose the key fields carefully, such as email, company, role and country, and keep the list stable so the score is comparable.
