Behind this dataset
Same schema. As many rows as you need.
These 90 rows came out of a blueprint — 22 columns with generation rules behind each one. Open it in Data Factory to retune a column, add your own, wire in foreign keys, and run it at the size you actually need.
- Each row represents one procurement event for telecom hardware.
- Include fields for hardware type, supplier ID, order placement date, delivery date, and delivery accuracy rating.
- Flag incidents with delayed, incomplete, or defective deliveries.
- Calculate procurement cycle time and categorize supplier reliability as high, medium, or low.
- Record cost variance compared to initial order estimate.
