Problem with passing events & merchandising evar in s.products - Adobe Analytics

Hi everyone, Could you please help me with debugging the following issue. We are passing numeric events (event85) and merchandising variables (evar63) as s.products' attributes. Event85 is specific to different values of evar63 - it may be omitted or it may be set to event85=2. So, i can't pass it into s.events="prodView, event85=1" and apply it to all products in s.products string. Here is the page code:s.events = “prodView”s.products = “Modules; Mod001;;;event39=1, Modules; Mod001;;;event85=1;...

Re: Can processing rules be applied to concatenate merchandising evar to context data? - Adobe Analytics

Harry, thank for your input. Indeed, it should be something really simple.Are you saying you were able to overwrite the merchandising evar with other value and the product syntax stayed intact? Doesn't it contradict to Adobe Help section where 'The product string, referrer, and user agent cannot be changed' (http://microsite.omniture.com/t2/help/en_US/reference/processing_rules_about.html). ?It was my very first attempt to concatenate the values and it didn't work.We are passing one conversion v...

Harry, do you remember if your Merchandising evar used Product Syntax or Conversion variable syntax?I've got Client Care confirmation that merchandising evar set up with Product Syntax can not be used in the processing rules to overwrite another variable.thanks!irina

Re: Can processing rules be applied to concatenate merchandising evar to context data? - Adobe Analytics

HI Harry, Using Data Warehouse is possible, but quite challenging for a regular business user. This is an option, but i'm still looking for a way to implement the classification of a concatenated merchandising evar + currdate.RE: Overwrite merchandising evar to another variable - that sounds promising! I'm not sure why, but it doesn't work for me. Did the new variable (URL) inherit the events allocated to the merchandising evar?I'm using:s.events = “prodView,event85=1”s.products="Modules; Mod001...

Re: Can processing rules be applied to concatenate merchandising evar to context data? - Adobe Analytics

Hi Harry, Thanks for your reply. I'm not sure if i know how to implement your suggestion. I need to capture the merchandising evar, concatenate it to the current date, and then classify the combined value. Are you saying that i can create a classification based on 2 variables at the same time (merchandising evar and date fired separately)? I haven't heard of that....In my project, i need to classify the evar+date combination to preserve the historical changes made to some classification attribut...

Re: Can processing rules be applied to concatenate merchandising evar to context data? - Adobe Analytics

Hmmm, that's quite unfortunate :-(. I can't really set the concatenated value of evar63 and the current date into s.products. It will break all s.products & image request character limits. And i absolutely need these ids be processed with the dates because it will be used for the date-specific classifications.OK, one more workaround theory (and a question). If i pass the incrementor event to s.events, set merchandising evar63 into s.products, pass another empty evar64 on the same call and then -...

Re: Can processing rules be applied to concatenate merchandising evar to context data? - Adobe Analytics

Brian, thank youI wish merchandising evars could me manipulated via processing rules.Well, i'm testing the workaround with an additional variable. I assumed that the value of a merchandising evar can still be copied to another evar via processing rules. Is my assumption correct? So, we are passing the merchandising evar in the s.products on s.t() call together with a context data variable:s.products="Category;SKU;;;event85=1;evar63=id_1"s.contextData["currdate"]=new Date();Then, i copy the value...

Can processing rules be applied to concatenate merchandising evar to context data? - Adobe Analytics

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 concaten...

And - PLEASE return the Account name to the top of the page! It is very annoying to keep opening the Accounts menu just to check what RSID i'm working with. Especially when i am comparing the same reports for different RSIDs in multiple windows. [img]RSID_name.jpg[/img]

Page Module tracking via s.list: wrong s.event allocation - Adobe Analytics

Hello, We are trying to calculate the click-through rate of some page Modules. So, the CTR should be = # Module Clicks / # Module impressions.To capture the Module impressions, we pass the list of page Modules into s.list and fire the Module impression event (event39):s.events="event39"s.list3="Mod1,Mod2,Mod3" - the list of Module IDs of all Modules displayed on a particular pageThen, when a user clicks on any particular Module, we pass the Module's name and Module click event (event24):s.events...

Re: List Variable Expiration and Allocation - Adobe Analytics

Agreed with all the comments above. We ran into the same allocation issue trying to track the internal campaigns and their click-throughs. And were very frustrated to findout about the full allocation of s.lists variables. Even more frustrating - none of the Customer Care reps pointed that out when we wondered why all list values are getting click-event allocations. We ended up using s.products instead - which is not the proper way of tracking internal campaigns and won't a good fit for everyone...

Segmentation by Date Variable - Adobe Analytics

I need to check the performance of recently published Articles during this week. We are passing the Article Title in to evar1/sprop1 and Article Pulish Date into evar2/sprop2. There is no way to build a segment [in SC or Discover] with a date based rule using the custom traffic / conversion variables. IN my case, i would like to create a segment where Publish Date is greater than [something] or - even better - Publish is within some rolling (e.g. Last Week) period. I know - there are no date-bas...

Ability to remove 'Unspecified' line from Correlation Reports - Adobe Analytics

It would be great if we could filter the 'Unspecified' line out of many correlation reports like Page-Referring Keywords, Page-Search Engine, Channel(Seaction)-Search Engine, etc. It's really inconvenient to see the Unspecified line accounting for 95% and the breakdown of the remaining items within 5%. IF i'm looking for the referring keywords to a certain page/channel, i would like to see the breakdown of the actual keywords, not their % of the remaining 5% after the Unspecified ones.Thanks!
