It can lead to further errors as offen done without testing and under stress and time pressure. Documenting manual data fix can help to avoid problems, as it supports:
- prepare fix before it is done, so that it can be reviewed / tested / run
- information about fix and its date is easily available
- changed records can be traced
- change can be easily repeated if necessary
