SomeCompound conditionsattributes have more dimensions that are built from compound attributes (like in the example below for the "Current subscription status" attribute, we have various dimensions available "Email", "subscriptionSubscription status", "Date of subscription status").

Compound attributes work the same as other attributes. They are there to help you see that they belong to the same group of attributes logically put together. 

"And"/ "or" operators

In between,between youattributes, can chooseselect the operator "and/ or" to specify the segmentation query further.operator. 

Remember: AND has higher precedence over OR. For example, if defined A and B or C, in fact. it will behave in this way: (A and B) or C.

Exclusion

It is possible to set condition negation by clicking on the "Not" button. In this way, it is possible to exclude specific values. 

For example, chooseselect all customers who do not equal email denielscott5523@gmail.com, as we wishsarahprice3344@gmail.com to exclude this particular customer.email from your search.   

Parentheses

Set parentheses () to specify the query. For example, "(A or B) and (C or D)":  customers from "(A Jakarta or B Singapore) and (C subscribed to an email or D made a transaction)".  

Remember: AND has higher precedence over OR. For example, if defined A and B or C, in fact, it will behave in this way: (A and B) or C.
