The Scenario
The quarterly vendor spend review is two weeks away. You're a financial analyst. The accounts payable team has 300 vendor names in Excel. Finance leadership wants spend summarized by parent corporation, not by subsidiary. "Amazon Logistics," "Amazon Web Services," and "Amazon Advertising" are three separate lines. Leadership wants one "Amazon" line.
The bad version:
- Build a parent company mapping table from memory and Google — takes an afternoon, misses acquisitions from the last 18 months.
- Pull a corporate hierarchy dataset from a BI tool your company hasn't licensed.
- Present subsidiary-level data with a footnote explaining parent consolidation wasn't possible in time.
The quarterly review goes to the CFO and the board.
The Easy Way: One Prompt in SheetXAI
SheetXAI reads your Excel workbook and calls Interzoid's parent company lookup API for every vendor row.
For each company name in column A, call Interzoid to look up its ultimate parent company and write the parent name and domain to columns B and C.
What You Get
- Column B: ultimate parent company name per vendor.
- Column C: parent company domain.
- A workbook ready for parent-level spend pivot — sum column D (spend) by column B (parent).
What If the Data Is Not Quite Ready
Some vendors in column A are already parent companies
For each vendor in column A, call Interzoid to look up the ultimate parent. If the result is the same as the input or Interzoid returns no parent, write the original vendor name to column B. Otherwise write the parent name. Write the parent domain to column C in all cases.
You have domains in column B as well
Look up the parent company for every entry in the vendors worksheet (column A = vendor name, column B = domain) using Interzoid and fill in the parent corporation name and country in columns C and D.
You want spend consolidated by parent immediately
After writing parent names to column B, sum spend in column C grouped by parent name in column B and write consolidated totals to a new 'ParentSpend' worksheet sorted descending by total spend.
Full parent resolution + spend rollup in one shot
For each vendor in column A, call Interzoid to identify the ultimate parent and write parent name to column B, parent domain to column C. For vendors with no parent found, use the original name. Create a 'ParentSpend' summary worksheet showing total spend from column D per parent company sorted descending, with a row count per parent showing how many subsidiaries roll up.
The board-level spend summary is ready two weeks early.
