As a modern business, you generate vast amounts of data across different systems and departments. Business partner profiles sit in CRM, product data lives in PIM and location details hide in ERP – each valuable on its own, but isolated.
Connect Customers, Places and Products is a capability that brings these critical data domains together in one platform, revealing the interactions and patterns that help you serve partners better, optimize operations and make smarter strategic decisions.
Store and manage business partner, location and product data in one central system.
Set specific workflows and rules for each type of data while establishing clear links between them. The platform works with both simple and complex data structures, applying relevant validation rules to each domain.
You can trace how data changes over time and see who made which modifications. And when you need to find specific information across domains, the search function helps you locate it and shows related records from other domains.
Link your business partner, location and product data using relationship mapping tools. Configure rules for automatic connections where it makes sense, and manually create special cases when needed.

Data quality checks prevent incorrect connections, while the visual interface helps you manage complex relationship structures.
Add context by pulling in relevant data from external sources.
