Expanded Data Preparation and Modeling Capabilities in Zoho Analytics

Expanded Data Preparation and Modeling Capabilities in Zoho Analytics

Since launch, the integration of Zoho DataPrep within Zoho Analytics, has significantly enhanced the ETL (Extract-Transform-Load) capabilities. This integration allows users to connect, clean, transform, and enrich their data effortlessly—all from within Zoho Analytics.
Building on this, the release of Zoho Analytics 6.0 in September 2024 introduced even more advanced data modeling and preparation capabilities by fully integrating the latest enhancements of Zoho DataPrep within Zoho Analytics.

Key Features of Zoho DataPrep

Zoho DataPrep’s enhanced Visual Pipeline Builder streamlines data pipeline creation, enabling users to build, test, and execute workflows in minutes. Key improvements include:
  • Automated & Scheduled Workflows – Ensure continuous data readiness.
  • Optimized Processing & Transformation – Enhance performance and efficiency.
  • Advanced Data Operations – Merge, filter, and aggregate data seamlessly.
With an intuitive drag-and-drop interface, users can effortlessly design and manage complex data workflows.

  • Interactive charts to identify problematic areas quickly.

Smart Features for Efficient Cleaning

  • Smart sampling with four options (Initial, Random, Erroneous, or Column-based) to work efficiently even with massive datasets.
  • Intelligent suggestions that automatically recommend the best fixes for common data problems.
  • Comprehensive transformation library including deduplication, format standardization, empty cell handling, and pattern matching.

Process Management Made Simple

Data Processing Capacity

Integrated Zoho DataPrep feature usage will be measured based on the total number of rows processed per month. Each plan within Zoho Analytics offers inbuilt processing capacity.

Plan based processing limits:

These new integrated DataPrep capabilities make Zoho Analytics a more powerful and scalable platform, empowering users with advanced tools for seamless data management and analysis.

I created a BCA for Dec 31, 2016 but no reversing entry was made Jan 1, 2017. Am I supposed to manually do a reversal? I'm not even allowed to post journals directly to the 'exchange gain loss'
