Description: While the new Data Warehouse UI is a much-welcomed step, I think it is missing some features that would make it more user friendly and efficient.
These would be:
1. Add calculated metrics.
2. Add custom date ranges.
3. Add segments to individual dimensions. This is a Workspace staple, it is so necessary.
4. Ability to edit/delete created accounts and locations. People make mistakes.
5. Requesting an account name, description and hostname seems unnecessary.
6. Ability to save notification emails.
7. The "Save request" button unshaded seems weird and is unhelpful as you navigate the tabs. A Next button until the last tab (Notification email) would be more helpful.
Why is this feature important to you
1. Calculated metrics is an integral part of Adobe Analytics, and the success of content/campaigns cannot be fully measured without it.
2. Custom date ranges. In addition to previous point, several campaigns and timeframes don't align with a standard calendar measurement (for example, since product launch).
3. Segments to individual dimensions. While we can do an overall segment, adding segments to individual dimensions within DW would save an enormous amount of time during data analysis. It is a staple of Workspace already.
4. Edit/Delete created accounts and locations. People make mistakes but also server information and credentials becomes outdated. Leaving the incorrect information there may lead to mistakes and isn't efficient.
5. account name, description and hostname seems unnecessary. This is just repetitive and counter-intuitive. It should be a name and server information. The name can be the description.
6. Save notification emails. Every other repetitive task has been eliminated but this one has been left on.
7. A Next button until the last tab (Notification email) would be more helpful. Given how counter-intuitive the Save button currently is (and the fact that there needs to be information in each of the tabs) a next button until the last tab follows standard web UI more closely.
How would you like the feature to work
1. Calculated metrics. Make it available the same way it is now in Analysis Workspace.
2. Custom date ranges. Make it available the same way it is now in Analysis Workspace.
3. Segments to individual dimensions. Drag and drop from the segments bucket. Make it available the same way it is now in Analysis Workspace.
4. Edit/Delete created accounts and locations. Add a delete and an edit button.
5. account name, description and hostname seems unnecessary. Remove description
6. Save notification emails. Add a plus sign (same UI as create accounts and locations)
7. A Next button until the last tab. Remove Save and add next instead. Add save to the last tab (Notification emails)
