Data story: 867 shipment data decoded!

867 shipment data is distributor-level information that includes details about the product sold, quantity, location, and sale date. This data is crucial for managing distributor sales and gaining visibility into downstream product activity.

867 shipment flows in the following direction:

> Distributors: Companies like AmerisourceBergen (Cencora), McKesson Corporation, Cardinal Health, and Atlantic Biologicals distribute a wide range of pharmaceutical products through their extensive networks.

> Wholesalers: Organizations such as ASD Healthcare, UbiPharm Group, SafeChain, and Brooks D&S provide a full range of pharmaceuticals and healthcare products to healthcare facilities nationwide.

> Healthcare Facilities (Ship to Facility): These can include entities like Golden Gate Urology, a physician group practice in the San Francisco Bay Area, or CentraCare Health - Paynesville, etc 

The challenge is that the "Ship to Facility" name may not directly indicate the hospital name. You need to match the address of the ship-to facility with your accounts database to fetch the account name. For example, one month the ship-to facility name might be Golden Gate Urology, while another month it could be Dr. Robert Q Yan, M.D., with the address 3100 Telegraph Ave Ste 3000, Oakland, CA. Searching this address would reveal the facility name as Golden Gate Urology. - This process is also called as FUZZY Matching
