FOUNDATIONS OF INFORMATION SYSTEMS
Introduction
    The information system is promoted as an edge for providing benefits providing continuous and competitive function for the performance level that can help in matching the expectation of the organization. It provides competitive support for handling the internal and external processes for the business. It provides a handy way for handling and storing operational data and communication records. The information is used for analysis and it can affect the business for preparation of cost estimation. The management team can use an information system for the calculation of key indicators like sales and profits. The information flows from manag
ement involve the process of decision-making that is dedicated to tasks.
Background to the issue you plan to solve
    The issue includes a problem with the way of a collection of the data. The complexity can increase if the data is not arranged properly. It can create issues in tracking the data for driving conversion and it loses visibility into optimization insights. Some of the data are missing in certain channels and it can lower down the conversion rate. Without proper insight, the complete data set may shed the budget into an expensive channel that might limit the sales and increase media spend. This increases the risk-limiting the brand growth and it becomes impossible for measuring the relationship between channels and provide a better understanding of conversion trends for finding the growth of the opportunity.
    Missing data handling is an issue that affects the marketing and sales of the company. Missing data includes the missing sequence, file missing, and incomplete features (Hidayati, 2020). The missing value in the data can be a setback for the opportunity for performing the right feature for providing the guidance to the model for interpreting the missing information.
