Ability to combine Dimension on the fly (think: Calculated Dimensions)

Hello friends,

 

I think everyone who works with Adobe Analytics has run into a situation where we would like to combine the value of two or more dimensions into one value for reporting. If you have an eVar for City and a prop for Country, it would be awesome to be able to combine both to a value like "City in Country", just like a Calculated Metric. If it only works for dimensions on the same hit we would already have a lot of value.

 

Today, I solve this by tracking the value in a combined way and utilize Classification Rules to separate them afterwards. This works for new implementation but does not help for historical data or new use cases.

 

Please vote for this idea if you want it as well!

 

Best,

Frederik

I am also looking for similer kind of solution where we can combine 2 dimensions for single hit. 

For marketing chennel report we want to combine medium and source. So the combine value would be "social/Twitter". Rather then breaking down any eVar(campaign name) first by medium and then source. We want to see it as single line item.

I appriciate your response on this.

Thanks in advanced!
