DataBlend 101

DataBlend makes it easy to integrate the everyday applications used by Finance and Accounting and empower teams to take control of their data. DataBlend operates on based on the following principles:

• Credentials are the first step in connecting DataBlend to a source and/or target system. DataBlend makes it easy to securely store credentials so that data can be collected or sent at any time in an automated fashion. For more see Credentials.
• Collectors are the second step in a typical DataBlend workflow. This is when you begin to collect data. DataBlend supports collection from over 75 source systems. Collections have been preconfigured to collect all relevant data based on object type for each source. This means the Data needed for finance and accounting is collected and no more! For more see setting up Collectors.
• Queries are where you transform and map the data from source system to target. For more see Queries.
• Data Targets are where you can send data to a target. DataBlend makes it easy to format your data correctly, so it gets to where you want it! For more see Data Targets.
• Workflows - Now that you've connected, collected, query and sent? (say that 5 times fast!) workflows are where you can automate it all. DataBlend provides flexible scheduling and automation. For more see Workflows.
• Data Management - Upload data tables directly to DataBlend or manipulate existing data easily leveraging DataBlend's Data Management tools. For more see Data
• Wizards are prebuilt workflows based on predefined business use cases. So easy it's magic! Get it? To give it a try see Wizards
