Hi everyone,
Could you please help me debug the following issue with using merchandising and context vars in the processing rule?
We are passing one conversion variable (evar63) as a merchandising var in the s.products:
s.products = “Category; SKU;;;event85=1;evar63=’id_1’"
ON the same s.t() call, we are passing the current date via context variable ('currdate'):
s.contextData["currdate"] = new Date().toMMDDYYYYString();
Then, we would like to overwrite the original value of evar63 with the concatenated values of evar63 and context data (currdate). The processing rule is:
- If evar63 is Set, then Overwrite value of evar63 To Concatenated Value of evar63, currdate(Context Data) using a pipe (|) delimiter.
Unfortunately, this setup didn't work and we are still getting the original, not concatenated values in the evar63 report.
I was confused because the Help section mentioned, 'The product string, referrer, and user agent cannot be changed' (http://microsite.omniture.com/t2/help/en_US/reference/processing_rules_about.html).
Is merchandising evar should be considered a part of product string and can NOT be altered? The Customer Care rep assured it can be since it is available in the drop-down menu of the processing rule.
Did anyone tried to use merchandising var and context data in the same processing rule?
Thank you!
