Coffee Break: Join us on Wednesday, April 5th at 10am PT to chat with Ben Gaines, Director of Product Management for Adobe Analytics. Ben will be online to answer your Analytics and Adobe Summit questions.
Would be good to have a setting for SAINT import to treat empty cells as empty and not as "keep old value". Currently you have to overwrite empty strings with "~empty~" to delete values.
I do like it the way it is, although I see benefits in the motion.
This should definitely be an option instead of a default setting. I see all sort of legacy processes tied to the current behaviour with lots of SC clients.
My concern with this is simply that things might get overwritten a LOT. But it's a good idea and something I'll pass along to the SAINT development team. Keep the comments coming!
At least there is a workaround with the ~empty~ value. The bigger problem is if you are submitting a value of "0". This will be regarded as "NULL" instead of "0".
