Target Group Definition: Based on Dataset
- To access the definition wizard for a target group, select the desired target group in the Target Groups subtree, then select Edit -> Open Target Group Definition from the menu (or go via the right-click menu of the target group node in the explorer tree).
- To create a new "subscriber dataset" target group, select New -> Recipient Target Group -> Based on Dataset from the menu (or go via the right-click menu of the parent target group folder in the explorer tree).
This Target Group Definition wizard lets you define a target group of the type Subscriber Dataset that can be used in the recipients wizard to define the recipients of a job.
The wizard for a target group of the type "Subscriber Dataset" has multiple pages:
General, Source, Source Details,
Parameters, Input Layout,
Input Preview, and Summary.
The top row of the wizard displays links to each of these pages. The page that is currently open is marked with a highlighted background color. Depending on the choices made on some of the wizard pages, other pages may become disabled or may be shown in different versions. If a wizard page is disabled, then it means that this page is not necessary with the current choices and can safely be ignored.
Input Preview: Test Target Group Parameter Layout
Displays the parameters in exactly the same way as they are displayed to the end user when this target group is used in the recipients wizard.
It allows you to verify that the labels, descriptions, parameter types and values, as well as the parameter ordering and any optional headings which you may have added, appear as expected. You can also check that the input validation for integer or floating point numbers is enabled for the input fields where this is required.
