The purpose of this paper is to document the U.S. Census Bureau’s experience with interactive data-editing strategies used in collecting data from business survey respondents. Such surveys are subject to many classes of unintentional human error, such as programming mistakes, omissions, miscalculations, typing errors, and interviewer misclassifications. The contribution of each class of inadvertent error to total survey error, however, may be controlled or at least somewhat mitigated by good survey design practice, forethought and planning, and by the advances of computer technology. In the survey context, all such efforts to detect and correct respondent errors fall under the purview of data editing.
