Structure instead of chaos: How data mapping makes the difference
Creating the basis for growth with professional data mapping
Master and product data form the basis of many business processes. Their added value depends on the integration and harmonization of different sources. forbeyond uses professional data mapping to make data structures compatible and optimize their use. With our gateway, we set new standards and offer manual, partially and fully automated mappings for individual requirements.
What is data mapping?
Data mapping is the process by which data fields from a source are assigned to specific fields in a target structure. This step is necessary in order to connect different systems and applications with each other. Structured mapping is particularly essential when integrating software, setting up or changing product information systems (PIM) or migrating data.
Strategic relevance of data mapping
Sophisticated data mapping reduces the time-to-market of products, increases transparency and strengthens the future viability of your value chain. It minimizes manual errors, supports data-based decisions and creates the basis for uniform standards and clear communication. This makes data mapping a crucial building block for digital transformation and sustainable success.
Sophisticated data mapping offers numerous advantages
Improved data quality
Clear assignments and standardized structures increase data quality and ensure up-to-date, consistent and correct information.
Greater process efficiency
By automating complex assignment processes, workflows can be accelerated, saving time and resources.
Minimizing manual errors
A good mapping strategy reduces dependency on error-prone, manual interventions and ensures smooth data flows.
Better data integrity
When data fields in source and target systems are clearly and consistently connected, the overall quality and reliability of the data (data integrity) increases.
More transparency and traceability
Mapping protocols and a structured procedure make it possible to trace how information flows from one source to its destination. This makes audits and compliance requirements easier.
Mapping to standard classifications
Mapping to industry-specific standards such as eCl@ss, ETIM or UNSPSC ensures uniform communication between companies, partners and systems.
Flexible scalability
The more standardized and clearer the mapping, the easier it is to integrate additional data sources or new systems into the data landscape.
Basis for analytics & AI
Cleanly prepared data is the prerequisite for reliable analyses, reporting and the successful use of AI technologies.
