A Target Cell Spreadsheet (TCS®) is an editable grid component that has a set of predefined attributes. You use Target Cell Spreadsheets when
IBM ® Marketing Operations-
Campaign integration is enabled. The
TCS® specifies the data that users must enter in a campaign project to define the target and control cells for the campaign. Each column on the
TCS® corresponds to an attribute. Values for the predefined, or default, attributes are automatically passed to
Campaign. In addition to these default attributes, you can add an unlimited number of custom attributes to a
TCS®.
A TCS® can contain attributes that get passed to
IBM ® Campaign (cell attributes) and attributes that display only in
IBM ® Marketing Operations (grid attributes).
Use cell attributes for information you want to pass to Campaign. For example, attribute values you want to include in an output list, contact history, or report must be created as cell attributes.
You add a TCS® to a form by creating a new editable grid and identifying it as a
TCS®. (The form can contain other attributes in addition to the
TCS®.) When you place a
TCS® grid component on a form, it contains the default cell attributes. You cannot delete the default attributes.
When a user links a flowchart cell to the TCS® row, the data values supplied for the default attributes are passed to
Campaign automatically. Custom cell attributes are available automatically in
Campaign as
IBM ® Campaign Generated Fields in contact processes. For details on Generated Fields, see the
IBM ® Campaign User's Guide.
