Approach to create segments within group

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

Hello All,

Not sure of the correct terminology, however, this is what I'm trying to achieve:

I have a customer list and would like to consider some as 'External' and some as "Internal' for certain charts within my application.

Should this be done at the scripting level?

Thanks.

It depends. If you have a long list of customers then do it on the script or it if is only a few you can manage on the front end.

As a general principle I do everything I can in the script unless there is a good reason not to.

Could someone explain the syntax for doing this at script level and at the front end.

Thanks for helping the newbie.

In the script :

Load

If ( logic to identify external , 'External' , 'Internal' ) as [Customer Type] ,

add the rest of your fields

from blah..........

;

I would not do it in the front end.
