Change filter options

Who can use this feature?

Custom metrics and some system attributes include a change filter to help put context when values change and take action.

Common change filters include:

Numerical attributes and custom metrics use the following change formula: Change = ( [Current Value] - [Previous Value] ) /  [Previous Value]

Additionally, the following segment columns are available for status and contract status changes:

  • Previous status, previous contract status
  • Status change date, contract status change

Suggested uses

  1. Create a segment trigger when a customer engagement score declines by more than 50% in the last 14 days.
  2. Generate a report of newly upgraded customers in the last 90 days.
  3. Send a campaign to customers whose license utilization drops by 90% in 2 weeks, which could be an indicator that your customer may be moving to a competitor.
  4. Export the segment for action outside of Totango.

“1000%” represents a huge percent change increase, for example, if the active users changed from 1 to 200. “-” represents the percent change from 0 to any number greater than 0, mostly common in onboarding accounts. Since this case is unique, a tooltip to explain this case will appear in the application
