Data Quality in FIFA Connect ID

One of our key initiatives is to enhance data quality throughout the FIFA Connect Program. High-quality data plays a crucial role in ensuring that football-related processes function seamlessly, especially when it comes to player registrations, identification, international transfers, and solidarity payments.


To support this effort, we’ve introduced the Data Quality Dashboard in the FIFA Connect ID Admin Console.


You can access the Data Quality Dashboard via the left-side navigation menu in the FIFA Connect ID Admin Console.




Access the dashboard directly here:





The dashboard allows you to:


  • Proactively identify issues in player records linked to your Member Association

  • Review lists of FIFA IDs affected by various types of data inconsistencies

  • Understand how data issues impact downstream processes such as the Electronic Player Passport (EPP) or a club’s eligibility for training compensation and solidarity contributions


Issues Overview

Once you enter the dashboard, you will see a summary of data-related issues potentially affecting records linked to your Member Association. All issues marked in red require your team’s attention and review.



To begin:

  1. Click the "Go to the list" button under any specific issue you'd like to look into.
  2. A new browser tab will open showing a filtered list of affected FIFA IDs.
  3. Use the Admin Console's export functionality to download the list in .csv file for further investigation.
     

You can then follow your internal process to resolve these issues—typically by contacting your technical team or system provider.
