German term or phrase: Datenabgleich

In the following context (a company intranet, consisting in a list of FAQs on the topic of company travel and input of data about travellers) does the word ***Datenabgleich*** mean data consolidation or data replication, or something else?

Bedeuten zwei versch. Portale (BTB und CWT-Portrait) die Pflege von zwei verschiedenen Profilen oder ist ein Datenabgleich möglich?

Thank you very much for your help!
