System architecture

Architecture / Flow

The practical path from source data to reliable reporting output.

01

Network modules

Source-specific Python modules collect Awin, Rakuten, and TradeTracker-style data.

02

Normalization

Shared utilities standardize dates, currencies, transaction IDs, commission statuses, and schemas.

03

Unified output

Network-specific records are shaped into one reporting-ready affiliate transaction dataset.

04

Validation

Duplicate IDs, status changes, network totals, and date windows are checked before reporting.

Project Overview

Built affiliate network pipeline modules for multiple partner marketing sources. Each network had different schemas, date formats, currencies, commission statuses, and export/API behavior, so the work focused on source-specific extractors and shared normalization logic.

Key Challenges

  • Affiliate networks used different schemas, statuses, currencies, and attribution windows
  • Network-specific exports had to be normalized into one reporting shape
  • Transaction IDs and commission statuses needed duplicate and status validation
  • API settings and merchant/order identifiers needed to stay controlled across the workflow

Results & Impact

  • Built separate Python source modules for multiple affiliate networks
  • Created shared normalization utilities for network-specific outputs
  • Defined validation checks for network totals, transaction IDs, dates, and statuses
  • Mapped a reusable pattern for partner marketing transaction reporting

Have a similar data workflow?

If your reporting process depends on APIs, spreadsheets, ad platforms, or asynchronous exports, I can help turn it into a reliable pipeline with validation, monitoring, and clean outputs.
