Creating a Primary Search Group Mapping

Your organization might want an option to filter searches for customers and products based on the Primary Search Group assigned to the user. You can assign users (through Security setup) to a specific Primary Search Group (generally a chapter or region). This gives the ability for the user to search through Personify based on their Primary Search Group.

 

From the Subgroup Central screen, after defining the basic subgroup parameters and setup, you can use Postal Mapping to associate specific zip codes to a Primary Search Group. To access the Primary Search Group Mapping screen, select Maintain Primary Search Group Mapping under the Segmentation task group on the Subgroup Central screen.

Note.pngIf the CUS subsystem parameter AUTOMATIC_SEARCH_GROUP_ASSIGNMENT is set to 'Y', the Primary Search Group is automatically populated for each customer, based on the customer's primary address.
