Points to consider for Campaign Segments and Segment Central
- When creating segments from SegmentCentral, base table mappings created in
AudienceCentral will be used. Once we enable segment central, Campaign segments
menu under Campaign will not be available. However, you can create new segments
from campaign flowcharts, but they will get listed inside segment central.
Segments created from Campign flowcharts will display relevant in
Campaign and used in Campaign. From 12.1.5 onwards Campaign names
will not redirect user to the respective campaign and/or flowcharts
- Segment central analysis tab does not have the legacy reports, those will be
made available in future releases.
- Base table mapping created from Audience Central will be used by Segment Central
for creating segments.
- Though it is not restricted from installation perspective, AudienceCentral and
SegmentCentral both should be installed and deployed to be useful as
functionally they are dependent on each other.
- Segment central does not consider any post scripts and flag for bin file
creation flag. Bin file will not be created through segment central irrespective
of the flag value. However, segment creation through campaign flowcharts will
continue their behaviour with the bin file creation, DS selection, post scripts
etc.
- User should delete Audience levels/ base table mappings on their responsibility-
we display the number of segments which are using a particular mapping. While
deleting will make the corresponding segments to fail after republishing but it
can be used with created temp tables if not republished.
- Segment Central supports following databases as user data source(s) - Microsoft
SQL Serer, MariaDB, Oracle, DB2.
- Segment Central capability is not at par with Campaign segments. For advance
segmentation user can continue with Campaign Segmentation capability, even when
segment central is enabled.
- Even after switching to SegmentCentral, user can still create segments in
campaign and interact in the same way, but the listing will be under
SegmentCentral.
- Existing permissions in Campaign are used for segments and segment folders. Any
user having create and edit segment permission, can also test run the segment in
respective action. There is no separate permission required for test run.
