Data Transformation

Data Transformation is a process where data is converted into a different format. This process is helpful when introducing a new system format because data organized under the original format can be easily converted into the updated format. Data transformation can create consistent versions of data from different locations and systems where units, currencies, times, and numeric values have been collected or recorded differently. Another benefit of Data Transformation is that it improves the accuracy of certain records by combining and updating disparate data.
