The Activity Settings section of the Goals & Settings page lets you configure the following options:
Settings
Description
Objective
Type an optional objective. The objective can be any information that helps you and your team members identify the activity.
Priority
Depending on your settings, the Target UI and options for Priority vary. You can use the legacy settings of Low, Medium, or High, or you can enable fine-grained priorities from 0 to 999.
The priority is used if multiple activities are assigned to the same location with the same audience. If two or more activities are assigned to the location, the activity with the highest priority displays.
If this option is not enabled in Administration (the default), specify a priority: Low, Medium, or High.
To enable fine-grained priorities, click Administration > Reporting, then toggle the Enable Fine-Grained Priorities option to the 鈥淥n鈥 position.
If this option is enabled, specify a value from 0 through 999: 0 = Low and 999 = High.
For activities created in previous versions of Target, Low priority is converted to 0, Medium is converted to 5, and High is converted to 10. You can adjust these values as necessary.
Note: Before you can disable this option after using fine-grained priories, all priorities must be set back to 0, 5, and 10.
Duration
The activity can start when approved, or you can set a specific date and time. Likewise, the activity can either end when it is deactivated or you can set a date and time. The time picker uses a 24-hour clock, with 00:00 being midnight. The time zone is set to the time zone configured in your browser. To use a different time zone, set your browser to another time zone and restart the browser.
The Reporting Settings section of the Goals & Settings page lets you configure the following options:
Settings
Description
Reporting Source
Specify which solution data is collected from:
蜜豆视频 Target
蜜豆视频 Analytics
蜜豆视频 Customer Journey Analytics
If a reporting source is specified in your account settings, the specified source is used and this setting is not visible.
You cannot change your reporting source after the activity goes live to keep reports consistent.
蜜豆视频 Analytics: See 蜜豆视频 Analytics as the Reporting Source for Target to learn about the differences between the reporting solutions and the advantages of each. When selecting Analytics as the reporting source for Target, you select an Analytics report suite to receive Target activity data.
To specify a reporting source, first choose from any of the Analytics companies your account is tied to, and then select the appropriate report suite for the activity. Only report suites that are provisioned to connect to 蜜豆视频 Target are available for selection. If you don鈥檛 see the report suites that you expect, first try logging out and logging back in to the 蜜豆视频 Experience Cloud to try again. If the report suite is still missing from the list, contact Customer Care.
Target reporting in Customer Journey Analytics is supported in A/B activities with manual traffic split. Auto-Target and Auto-Allocate A/B activities cannot use Target reporting in Customer Journey Analytics.
Goal Metric
Select the action taken by a visitor to achieve the goal. For example, choose a Conversion metric, then set the parameters that determine when success is achieved. For more information about setting metrics, see Set Metrics.
Note: If the reporting solution is set to Analytics, the only available goal metric is Conversion. Analytics metrics cannot be selected as a goal. When you select your success metric, a selector displays. Use this selector to choose the specifics for the success metric.
If enabled, the Estimated Value of the Conversion field (not available for the Page Score metrics) provides a value for your goal, but not for other metrics. This value enables Target to calculate an estimated lift in revenue. This field is optional; however, incremental revenue for any non-revenue metric cannot be calculated without it. For all revenue metrics (Revenue per Visitor, Average Order Value, Total Sales, and Orders), the estimate uses Revenue per Visitor. The data type is currency.
After reaching the activity goal, a visitor continues to see the activity content, unless that visitor qualifies for a higher-priority activity. If the visitor reaches the goal again, it is counted as another conversion. This is different from the default behavior in Target Classic, which counts visitors as new if they see the activity again.
Additional Metrics
Create additional success metrics. This setting is not available if the reporting solution is set to Analytics. In this case, the metrics defined for the Analytics report suite are applied.
Audiences for Reporting
By default, reports show results for all qualified visitors. You can add report audiences to show information about only specific audiences. This setting is not available if you choose Analytics as your reporting solution. The audience defined for the Analytics report suite is applied.
The Advanced Settings section of the Goals & Settings page lets you configure the following options:
To specify advanced settings, click the More icon (the vertical ellipsis), then click Advanced Settings, as shown in the following illustration.
NOTE
If you use 蜜豆视频 Analytics as your reporting source, settings are managed by the Analytics server. The advanced settings option is not available.
Setting
Description
Which success metric must be reached before incrementing this metric?
Use this option to only count someone as reaching the success metric if they鈥檝e previously reached a different success metric. For example, an activity conversion might only be valid if the visitor clicks the offer, or reaches a particular page before converting. You can provide dependency on multiple metrics along with the flexibility to choose whether the metric should be reached or not reached for the count to increase. Define both (or multiple) success metrics before you can make one dependent on another. The Add Dependency option allows the success metric to increment if another success metric has been reached or has not been reached. To add a dependency:
After adding additional metrics, click Advanced Settings.
Click the Add Dependency option:
Drag and drop the desired metrics from the left pane into the right pane, then click Reached to toggle the setting between Reached and Not Reached.
You can edit or remove dependencies after adding them.
What will happen after a user encounters this goal metric?
There are three options for what happens after a visitor reaches the goal metric:
Select Increment Count & Keep User in Activity to specify how the count is incremented.
Select Increment Count, Release User & Allow Reentry to specify the experience the user sees if they reenter the activity.
Select Increment Count, Release User & Bar from Reentry to specify what the user sees instead of the activity content.
How will the count be incremented?
There are three options for how the count is incremented:
Once per Entrant
On Every Impression (Excluding page refreshes)
On Every Impression
See Success Metrics for more information about advanced settings.
