2.0 Business Process



COPA Netback and iCare

In the context of our business operations, these 2 queries are based on the Profit and Loss scope, so to understand in more detail this part please check in the respective functional documentation. 

Regarding the COPA Netback process, the purpose is to utilize the same framework as our Profit and Loss scope to generate reports on the GBU SodaAsh side. The primary objective here is to reallocate sales made by trading  entities by Solvay, identifying Solvay customers, and ensuring the accuracy of customer information. The ultimate aim is to maintain the cleanest and most accurate data possible.

For this process, they make use of our COPA information, and on their side they use the Dataiku tool to manipulate this data, ultimately generating a file referred to as 'COPAG' containing the necessary information.

The file will offer a substantial amount of data that has been meticulously processed by Dataiku to ensure that they are working with the most precise and accurate data for their specific objectives. This approach was necessitated by the fact that our initial queries from the Profit and Loss side did not fully meet the requirement of providing the cleanest data pertaining to the costs associated with SodaAsh. Furthermore, it enables the analysis of a unique case in the United States concerning the payment of royalties to certain companies that own lands, where a percentage of the Netback is associated with trona mineral (comprising 65% SodaAsh and 35% bicarbonate).
