Activate a Suppressed Data Issue

Use this activity to activate a previously suppressed data issue from the Data Issues form. Activating a suppressed data issue returns it to the list of active data health issues. It does not fix the underlying issue in the source data. For guidance on when suppression is appropriate, see Data Health Issue Guidance.
