• How do you keep product records traceable to the exact source data when several suppliers provide conflicting values for the same SKU?

  Hello there,

  For example, if two suppliers report different dimensions for the same product, and you can't assure which one is the product you are looking for through multiple sources, the system should flag that conflict instead of silently overwriting one value. So, when the evidence is insufficient, the record goes through human review.

  The final product record should preserve which source supports each accepted attribute, while keeping conflicting values available for auditing. AI can help with enrichment and classification, but source evidence and validation rules should remain the foundation of trustworthy product data.
