Customer Segments

Customer Segments

Purpose and when to use this record

Define the reusable audience rules used to select customers for ecommerce marketing.

At a glance

  • Identify it by: Name.

  • Check its business context: Store.

  • Why care: Store, publication, consent, payment, and fulfillment states affect what customers see and what staff must act on; check the correct store before saving.

  • Why care: Availability and publication flags affect future use without erasing history. Prefer disabling an obsolete setup record when existing transactions still refer to it.

  1. Select the business context first: Store.

  2. Enter the required identifying and operational values: Store, and Name.

  3. Review Is Active, and Match Type deliberately; these choices control availability or workflow rather than merely describing the record.

  4. Save the Customer Segment, then confirm Name on its detail page before continuing.

After saving: Verify this Customer Segment in Marketing Campaigns before staff build new activity on it; correct ownership, classification, and active state now rather than after transactions accumulate.

Delete a Customer Segment

Delete this Customer Segment only if it is an unused duplicate or setup mistake. Once other records refer to it, preserve that history and make the value inactive when the screen provides that option.

If the record is merely obsolete, use Is Active to remove it from future use while preserving existing references.

Edit an existing Customer Segment

Edit this Customer Segment to keep the same real-world party, item, location, or resource accurate. Do not repurpose it for a different entity after activity is attached.

  1. Open the detail page. Compare Store with the supporting document or approved request.

  2. Recheck Is Active, and Match Type. These values are most likely to change storefront visibility, customer communication, payment, or fulfillment.

  3. Save the change, return to the list, and confirm that the Customer Segment now appears under the expected Is Active, and Match Type.

After the change: Verify this Customer Segment in Marketing Campaigns before staff build new activity on it; correct ownership, classification, and active state now rather than after transactions accumulate.

Common mistakes and troubleshooting

  • The record will not save: Recheck Store, and Name and any message beside the field. A required related record may also be inactive or unavailable to your role.

  • The record saved but is not available where expected: Recheck Is Active, and Match Type, then clear the filters on the destination list. A saved record can still be inactive, unpublished, locked, unapproved, or in the wrong workflow state.

  • The values look right but the result is wrong: Open Store from the detail page. Correct the specific relationship that is wrong instead of forcing a total or status to compensate for it.
