Import Recipient Information From Two Sources

[lgtsotrsdh]

Hi,

I'm trying to figure out if it's possible to update recipient filter information from two different source. I have one recipient import task that populates recipient and filter information. I have another data source that has the same information except for two other fields that I need to add from that QVW to the filters. I would like to import from this second document and just added two more values to each of the filters.

Import 1: Create recipient data and a filter with two fields

Import 2: Add two new field values to each of the filters already created

Result: Recipient data from import 1 and filter data from import 1 and import 2

Reports are being delivered from two data sources in the same distribution, so I need to be able to apply the filters to each of the documents. There's currently no option to combine the QVWs.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Scott

More research seems to suggest that I need to be able to change connection sources since recipient import sources seem to assign filter connections to the default no matter where the QlikView object it's located.

I actually just figured out how to do it this morning using the CustomFilterConnection and CustomFilterID selections in the recipient import setup. I ran the regular import and then another adding new values for these fields and two filter selections were created for the recipient.
