What reports show/group by source media?

Hey all-

 

Just looking at maybe doing a little more slicing and dicing with source code reporting and wondering what reports group by the source code media field? It's not a field we currently use.

 

Thanks,
Steve

  • Hi Steve,

    I didn't mean to reply to the group, but since it's posted I should at least clarify. The Media Type field from Sources is available as a field in T-Stats. Feel free to send me a conversation if you'd like to hear anything more about that.

  • No standard reports group sources by media.  The primary purpose of the media field is to record media related expenses (like the per piece cost of a brochure) for sources.

  • This is a great candidate for a custom criterion for lists and extractions.  When running lists based on promotion response you can then filter by media - i.e. people who responded to an email offer in the last 6 months, or suppress people who have received the brochure for 5 years with no response. 

    Here is a sample of the entries in T_KEYWORD for a criterion for promotion media:

    DESCRIPTION Promotion Media
    DATA_TYPE Number
    EDIT_MASK vs_promotion
    DETAIL_TBL !.media_type
    DETAIL_COL tr_media_type
    REF_TBL id
    REF_IDCOL description
    REF_DESCCOL
    REF_WHERE
    REF_SORT Promotions
    CATEGORY List Only
    USE_FOR_LIST
    MULTIPLE_VALUE
    CONTROL_GROUP
    CUSTOM_ID
    CUSTOM_LIMIT
    CUSTOM_REQUIRED
    CUSTOM_DEFAULT_VALUE
    INCL_IN_BASIC_SEARCH N
    KEYWORD_DESC

    Best,

    Steve-

     

    Chris had that question mark in his answer about T stats and so I had to try it out and Media type does exist under Ticket Appeals (just in case you were wondering) in the Tickets Cube.  I never really went looking for it.  Thanks for sending me that way!  It seems to work.  We use that field but never really use it again.   But now that I see I can pull the data out in T-stats.. it gets me thinking!!

     

    Thanks!
