Description (optional) |
An optional field to draw a description of a meta attribute. The meta attributes and descriptions will be visible within the Meta attributes list. |
DefinitionThe definition of a meta attribute dictates the query you want to have available as a Common Table Expression (CTE). |
|
|
SQL query (required) |
The custom option allows managing attribute definition through an SQL query. Remember: it is not allowed to query the “customer_events” table. |
You may specify the order of meta-attributes calculation on the list of meta-attributes through a simple drag-drop system.
Remember: specifying the order is necessary, as one meta attribute can be part of the definition of another. Having a defined order helps avoid circular dependencies.
