A networked computing system where data from multiple sources is automatically tracked through a plurality of conversion steps at the data row and element level. The system allows input of data conversion metadata. The system automatically applies a version number to the conversion metadata. The system includes a data conversion engine. The data conversion engine ensures that processing metadata versions are in sync with versions of converted data. The conversion engine creates version synchronization at the data row and element level thus allowing data tracking at the data row and element level. The system includes a database that stores conversion metadata and execution attributes and a graphical user interface that allows the user access to the conversion metadata.
