Creating vendor mappings

Use this procedure to create vendors and map them to vendor codes. You can then use vendors in tag rules to specify whether a tag executes. Vendors are specific to each client ID. Vendors that you create in one client ID are not available in another client ID. You must have the Manage permission assigned to your user account to perform this task.

Procedure

  1. Click Manage > Vendor Mapping.
  2. Click Create Vendor.
  3. Enter a name for the vendor and click Save to save this new vendor name.
  4. Collect the vendor codes that you want to map to the new vendor name. You can find vendor codes in two ways:
    • Find existing vendor codes using the date field or calendar tool to select a date or date period. Any vendor codes that were returned in MMC parameters in IBM® Digital Analytics during the time that you specified are listed in the Available Codes list.

      You can further reduce the returned list of vendor codes by entering a text string in the search field.

    • Add codes directly to the Selected Codes list by entering a code and clicking Add a Code.
  5. Make sure that the correct vendor is selected in the Vendor Name list, and move all vendor codes that you want to associate with this vendor name to the Selected Codes list.
  6. When you have finished selecting the vendor codes that you want to map to your vendor name, click Save. The selected vendor codes are associated with the vendor name, and can be referenced when you create tag rules based on vendor criteria.
