What it does

Maps an external category label onto an internal taxonomy

Takes an external label and an internal taxonomy and returns the closest match, a confidence score, and a fallback when no good match exists. Run it at import time and external category labels land consistently in the internal classification without manual cleanup.

When you’d reach for it

  • Mapping vendor-specific product categories to internal part classifications during a distributor catalog import.
  • Normalizing external trade categories to internal service type codes inside a job board integration.
  • Harmonizing cost categories from multiple accounting systems into a unified chart of accounts.
