Defining Bucket Values

To create buckets

  1. From the application-level menu, choose View > Site Map > Marketing Administration screen, and from the Show drop-down list, choose Buckets.
  2. In the Buckets list, create a new record.
  3. Complete the necessary fields.
    1. Type a name for the bucket and a description of the bucket's range of values.
    2. Click the Measure select button.
    3. In the Pick Measure dialog box, choose a measure from the list of previously defined bound and custom measures and click OK.
    4. The read-only Measure Type field is filled in automatically.
