Hi Priya,

First logic is a toll that offers a comprehensive approach to address management, including data quality profiling services, address assignment solutions, and address learning systems. Furthermore, Firstlogic can assist posts with data quality across the postal enterprise and with the efficient movement of mail.

First logic features:

The core of Firstlogic’s Information Quality Suite is the matching and consolidation technology, which identifies relationships and consolidates customer and business data across databases. But in order for matching to be successful, it’s essential to work with the most accurate data possible.

Data cleansing is not mandatory for matching, but it is mandatory if you want to find most if not all of the matches.

Firstlogic’s data quality software:h1

¨ Identifies, standardizes, and corrects U.S. addresses and international data for over 190 countries

¨ Processes Unicode data and offers Japanese engine that standardizes addresses in Kanji/Katakana

¨ Identifies other customer information such as email addresses, phone numbers, SSNs, and dates, and verifies that it’s properly formatted

¨ Allows custom dictionaries/tables to be added which parse and standardize other data elements such as part numbers, product codes, purchase orders, SKUs, customer identification numbers, etc.

¨ Offers data enhancement options, such as email and phone append, geocoding, and move updating, which offers valuable information for analysis and marketing

Firstlogics data quality software creates a single customer view by analyzing, cleansing, matching, and consolidating data. By incorporating a data quality strategy, organizations are better able to understand their customers, make more effective marketing/business decisions, and improve the speed and efficiency of mail operations.

Hi all,

A few words about FirstLogic in SAP/MDM context:

FirstLogic was acquired by Business Objects, which is today an SAP company.

As mentioned, cleansing is part of their offering, and this capability is accessible to MDM data, not only in the initial load, but also as an ongoing process, through the enrichment controller of MDM.

I would not state it u201Ccreates a single viewu201D, more accurate to say it assist other tools, such as MDM to do it.

Hi,

FirstLogic is a data cleansing tool. It is an independent product (non SAP).

*Use with MDM:*

It is used in scenarios where data cleasing capabilities of SAP MDM are not sufficient. If organization requires advanced data cleansing capabilities, then it is provided using tools such as FirstLogic

*Landscape:*

R3-- FirstLogic-->MDM

Legacy /

Data from various remote systems is first imported in FirstLogic, perform data cleansing, import this cleansed data into MDM.
