To specify a BLI component

If you need to refresh the drop-down lists while you are creating the BL:I component, click Refresh Events.

1.	In the Inactivity Time Interval area, select an option in the Time Quantity drop-down list.

The other field selections in this section adjust depending on what option you choose.

If you chose Literal Value, then select a number from 1 through 100.

If you chose Data Source Field, then select a data source, and a datasource field.

If you chose Math Expression, then select an existing Math component.

2.	In the Inactivity Time Interval area, select a Time Unit (Hour, Day, Week, Month, or Year).

3.	In the Tracked Event area, select an Event Type and select an Event Name from the drop-down list of existing, corresponding components.

4.	In the Terminating Event area, select an Event Type and select an Event Name from the drop-down list of existing, corresponding components.

If you want to reset the date of the last occurrence of the Tracked Event to the current date when the Backward Looking Inactivity fires, then check the Treat firing of this Backward Inactivity as a Tracked Event checkbox. If this field is not checked, the date of the last occurrence of the Tracked Event remains unchanged.

6.	In the Behavior area, select an option in the Firing Behavior without a Tracked Event drop-down list.

This parameter defines when the inactivity fires when the engine recognizes the Termination Event for customers where there is no Tracked Event. The options are as follows.

Fire Immediately—the inactivity fires as soon as it recognizes the Terminating Event.

Consider Creation Dates—the creation date of the Backward Looking Inactivity and the date the UserId was created in Visitor History will be used to determine whether the inactivity should fire.

The system considers the creation date of both visitor history record and the creation date of the rule. For example, if a rule was created three weeks ago and the user is new as of yesterday, there may not be enough history on the user for the trigger to fire.

7.	Click Set Parameters to add the selected events and Inactivity Time Interval to the BLI.

8.	Click OK to save the component.
