Data lineage and data integrity for business decisions and reporting
Whether it’s internal reporting, annual reports or information that informs strategic decision making, data accuracy is fundamental to business success.
Having a visual representation of all systems in your business – showing where data flows and transforms—helps you understand where the data used in reports and decisions comes from and how it impacts the business. The ability to trace back from data discrepancies in reports helps you rapidly react to and resolve business issues.

Bringing it to life: example reporting scenario
A company is adding numbers from various currencies for annual reporting. Fx currency rates are applied to data and a transformation takes place – but is applied inconsistently by people using different systems. How Solidatus helps:
- Solidatus captures the logic of any of these transformations, so the finance team can trace back, see if the calculation makes sense, ensure they’re calculated properly or explain discrepancies
- An end-to-end view of the data lineage provided by Solidatus shows the full flow of the transformation and errors – providing an easy way to rapidly see issues highlighted in red
- A fine grain, column level view helps them drill down, to see the root cause as well as who owns the relevant system and contact them regarding correction
- They can also see changes over time, to understand more about the cause, such as when they changed currency systems.
