# Enrich

Enhance your data with additional context and information from external sources and lookup tables. The Enrich module adds valuable attributes that improve matching accuracy and provide richer insights.

## Why Enrichment Matters

Your source data often contains only what was captured at the point of entry. But effective Master Data Management requires additional context:

* Geographic data from ZIP codes (city, state, county, timezone)
* Demographic insights for population health
* Standardized codes and classifications
* Reference data from authoritative sources

skyMDM's Enrich module fills these gaps automatically, transforming basic data into comprehensive, analysis-ready records.

## Key Capabilities

### Automated Enrichment Rules

Configure which source columns should be enriched and what additional data to append. Rules apply automatically during pipeline execution.

### Confidence Scoring

Enrichment matches include confidence scores, so you know how reliable each enriched value is.

### Incremental Processing

Only new or changed records are enriched, minimizing processing time and costs for large datasets.

### Audit Trail

Track which records were enriched, what sources were used, and when enrichment occurred for compliance and debugging.
