Version List Tab
The Version List tab is used to review, define, and execute preprocessing criteria for customer segments. Version criteria allow users to define versions for merchandise and location combinations. These preprocessed versions can be used to generate customer segments at global or granular levels for merchandise and location. The user can then perform version actions such as creating, updating, and deleting versions and can use selected versions to define new segment criteria.
The Version List, which, by default, lists the global segment version, is defined as part of the batch process. This version is defined for all merchandise and all locations. The version has three key components: filtering, sampling, and attribute mining. It helps when performing the preprocessing of granular customer segments for departments such as men/women/children or segments such as health and beauty, because customers who are shopping for such categories can differ from customers who are shopping for groceries. These segments can be used by applications such as CMPO for planning at the global level or for promotion planning for granular level segments. The version list is sorted by last update, in descending order. The version status is sorted in descending order. The name is sorted in ascending order. Searching, using QBE and a search panel option, is provided for both basic and advanced searches.
