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 2,500 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.

Clean master data? Absolutely. Master data cleansing? Not exactly a walk in the park.
Mastering data cleansing usually means wading through endless tables and systems, getting buy-in from multiple business processes, all to establish standards, priorities, and who's responsible for what. And if you're thinking about applying specific data cleansing services, they often lack the flexibility to handle those unique business needs and the fuzzy logic that comes with it.
