Data Cleansing
Get your business partner master data clean not once, but smart!
Why your customer and vendor master data need to get clean:
critical violations
outdate within 1 year*
unintended duplicates
Data fit for purpose
Correct data of your customers and vendors is a prerequisite for proper invoicing, authority tax reporting, or reliable compliance checks. At the same time, manual data maintenance is time-consuming and error-prone due to the various country-specific reference data sources, as well as volatile business landscape.
By checking against 2,300 data quality rules and more than 70 reference data sources, CDQ gives you a comprehensive tool for handling any missing information in your business partner data, incorrect attributes, or duplicated records, making your data fit for purpose.
