Many finance teams rely on their ERP’s native reporting for this.

Data’s value to your organization lies in its quality. Data quality becomes even more important considering how rapidly data volume is increasing.

Well, large volumes of data are only valuable if they’re of good quality, i.e., usable for your organization’s analytics and BI processes.
