Data Source Prioritisation

Data Source Prioritisation plays a critical role in organising and presenting data across various platforms, particularly when multiple sources contribute to the same data type or point. This method determines the display order, ensuring that the most relevant source is highlighted and easily accessible. For instance, within the All Companies table, the source deemed highest in priority is not only shown in bold but also sets the sorting order for columns, making it the focal point for data interpretation. Similarly, in company profiles, these priorities decide the initial source displayed within different widgets and tabs, allowing for a customised viewing experience based on the prioritised source's reliability and relevance.

This prioritisation extends to various tables and fields, offering flexibility in how data is arranged. For example, in the context of Funding data, a user might prioritise CapIQ over SourceScrub, whereas for Headcount information, the preference could be inverted. This tailored approach to data source prioritisation ensures that you can navigate and utilise the data efficiently, according to your specific needs.
