Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A presence check is used to make sure that a value has actually been entered in a field. In some database files entering data in certain fields can be optional. Other fields, such as key fields for example, are compulsory and must have values entered in them.

Detailed explanation-2: -Methods for data verification include double data entry, proofreading and automated verification of data. Proofreading data involves someone checking the data entered against the original document. This is also time consuming and costly.
