Mailing/Customer segmentation

Hi Community, 

 

I need to give each customer by product a certain type of letter, but want to get some advice on the easiest the way to do it. 

 

Based on the filters Unique to In UK, I would like to tag it as scenario A. I have looked at doing it as an IF formula but have A - M so would take ages to go through the scenarios, and not sure how to loop it?

 

Then once I have all those customers, then I would want to tag the if they had Scenario A and then letter CL1,  for product D it would be CL1,SC6. 

 

I have only been properly using Alteryx for a few weeks, so this is a step too far for me at the moment. Only worked through basic tools so is there a cool way to do it? I could probably use a join to my source date to my scenario and match each field but it is 295k customers so could take a long time....

 

Any help would be great.

Hi @AlexCraft,

 

Not sure what do you want to achieve but quite often when you want to write a complex formula that will do something if specific criteria are met like:

 

If Joint = Y and Loyalty = N and Rebate = N then do something it is better to create a table which all those criteria and join it with your data. 

 

It is much easier to maintain and it is crystal clear how it works.

Hi @AlexCraft ,

I think the solution attached should work for you. This workflow will identify each unique scenario and attach a letter to that assignment. It will adjust automatically based on how many unique scenarios you have in your data. Let me know if this works for you!
