Introduction
When creating targets in S-360 SAM module you have access to what is called the "SECUTIX Query Engine".
These are the main areas and functions of the engine:
- Query starting condition
- Add filter / sub-query
- List of available filters and examples
- List of selected filters and conditions
- Disable/remove filters
- Search and results
1. Query starting condition
Anchor | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
|
The engine allows you to build a query as naturally as you construct a sentence. The standard start of the sentence is always set as: "Select records for which all conditions below apply."
You can however choose between 4 different possibilities depending on what you want to do:
- all ( + / and ): allows you to add contacts to the list and to link the conditions with an and
- none (- / and): allows you to exclude contacts from the list and to link the conditions with an and
- at least one (+ / or): allows you to add contacts to the list and link the conditions with one or
- at least not one ( - / or): allows you to exclude contacts from the list and to link the conditions with one or
2. Add filter / sub-query
Anchor | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
|
These two buttons allow you to:
- Add a new conditions / sub-conditions → it will open the list of filters (see §3)
- Add a nested query → this is an advanced setting, see the section below if you already know who to create and use standard queries/filters.

The sub-queries, or nested queries, allows you to define a subgroup of conditions within the query. Basically, it's like in mathematics when you use parentheses to differentiate between pieces of an equation that must be executed at first, before the result is applied to the whole equation. Ex: 10 x 5 – ( 3+2 ) = 45 is different from 10 x 5 - 3 + 2 = 49 Here it is important to group 3 + 2 in parentheses so that they are performed together before being subtracted from the rest of the equation. It's the same with sub-queries:

3. List of available filters and examples
Anchor | ||||

Here you find the filters among which you may choose. Click on them for a quick explanation and an example.
Please remember that SAM will always target cultural contacts (so including also those who have tickets/items that might have been bought/paid by someone else).

As a general rule it is not possible to use the same filter twice in the same query with different value. The result is always zero.

This menu includes some preset and most used filters. You may start with them, you'll find: Contact has not printed print@home ticket for → contacts who have not printed their print@home ticket for a given performance Contact is a member of → contacts being members of organization X (= the Member indicator is yes for organization X) Contact is season ticket holder of → contacts being subscribers of organization X (= the Subscriber indicator is yes for organization X) Contact has bought more than → contacts who have purchased for an amount greater than Contact has bought less than → contacts who have purchased for an amount less than Contact is in static target → contacts part of static target X. |

The main data from your contact cards are available in the first two filters (email, birthday date, source sales channel, the existence of a login, etc). The example below shows a query combining several operators and several individual entity fields. |

Information and communication authorizations for your contacts are available here. According to GDPR, SAM Campaigns module will in any case filter out contacts who do not provide their authorization, unless you specifically choose otherwise: see this page for more info How to create a campaign |

The data automatically calculated by S-360 based on the behavior of your contacts are available here. Also remember that indicators have a level and a value. For example, the "Attendance" indicator will have the occasional value and level 1 because the contact will have returned 1 time, thus classifying it in the occasional contact category. The example shows a query to get a list of all individuals with the Social Media Engagement (Shares) metric set to Engaged. |

Your contacts' qualification data are available here. If you have several organizations, the criteria can therefore be centralized (meaning that the value will be identical in all the organizations) or by organization (so specific for each one of them). |

Your contacts' cultural history is available here. Please remember that a contact is a cultural contact when a ticket/item is linked to them, despite if they were bought directly or by someone else. This filter is usually crucial for most of the targets. It refers to the last status of the product linked to the cultural contacts. |

4. List of selected filters
Anchor | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
|
This is where you will be able to define the conditions of your request. As seen above the button allows you to add a new condition.
When selected, each filter comes with its own set of operators (usually but not always including equal, notEqual, inList etc) and values to define the condition to be applied.
5. Disable/remove filter
Anchor | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
|
These buttons will be displayed for each filter row and allow you to
- Disable a condition temporarily →
- Delete a condition
6. Search and results
Anchor | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|

A simple click on "search" allows you to see the volume of contacts meeting the defined conditions. Please note you'll see on screen only the first 100 contacts.
You can click on contacts to access their files if needed..
After the target is saved and closed you can open it again to have access to export options:
