What’s the difference between mapped and original?

On the Platform, you may come across “Original” and “Mapped” spend categories. For example, you might see categories like Supplier Mapped and Supplier Original.

• organisation’sMapped spend refers to instances where we've mapped your organisations’s raw supplier data to a more standardized or parent company. This helps ensure that you can better benchmark products across different suppliers and across all organisations on Platform. For example, we might map a specific supplier to a parent company, allowing for more accurate comparisons and insights and ensuring no discrepancies with how individual organisations name their supplier information affects comparison or benchmarking on the tool.
• Original spend refers to the raw, unmodified data from your organisations's suppliers, before any mapping has been applied on our end.

These categories are designed to give you a clearer view of your spend and help you make more informed decisions.

If you'd like to learn more about mapped and original categories, have any questions about your organisation's mapping, or need further clarification, feel free to reach out- our team is always happy to help!
