Is some sort of data auditing facility available in these packages to say 
"these records are incomplete"?  In dealing with migrating legacy data 
into relational databases I've had to write these sorts of auditing 
scripts to gradually clean up the old data.  Sometimes this is before 
loading into the relational system, but often it happens after it's 
loaded.  A flag that says "this record is incomplete" or simply a series 
of checks "if x then problem" have been effective if the users are 
motivated to clean up the data problems found in the audit.
