Source Data Validation
Proactively detect and fix bad data before Vena load, guaranteeing 100% data accuracy for reliable financial reporting.
About Source Data Validation
ERP systems rarely have 100% clean data, leading to ETL failures and unreliable reporting. Our multi-layer validation approach proactively isolates data issues and guarantees that all financial data loaded into Vena is 100% accurate and complete.
Key FP&A Challenges
Unvalidated source data leads to critical ETL failures, inaccurate Vena reports, and significant time wasted on debugging and manual error correction.
ERP systems lack 100% accuracy
unclean data causes load process to stop
data issues slip into Vena unnoticed
Vena metadata is out of sync with ERP
teams waste time resolving data problems
DSCIM implements automated validation rules, eliminating dirty data and ensuring stable ETL execution for consistent, accurate financial reporting in Vena.
Why DSCIM’s Approach Stands Out
Finalizing Your Vena Implementation Strategy
By working with DSCIM, you will:
- Eliminate reporting errors by ensuring data is clean before entering Vena;
- Reduce ETL failures and debugging time, improving productivity;
- Gain confidence in your financial reports with validated, structured data.
