Our upstream team is transitioning RFID SKU data to a new source. During this period, there may be times when no new data is available. We’ll notify you once the new source is live.
Merchandising will be making additional hierarchy changes for Departments 5, 7, and 87 between Monday, February 23 and Friday, February 27. Additional hierarchy changes for fashion departments will begin on Monday, March 2 and last for up to 8 weeks. The above hierarchy changes will be reflected in Channel Performance on a daily basis, pulling in changes each morning from the day before. If you have any pre-built reports utilizing hierarchy filters, you may need to clear these filters and recreate them with the new hierarchies. Shopper Behavior, Customer Perception, Digital Landscapes, and Insights Activation will reflect all Departments 5, 7, and 87 hierarchy changes on Monday, March 9. Fashion hierarchy changes for Shopper Behavior, Customer Perception, Digital Landscapes, and Insights Activation will also begin to be reflected on Monday, March 9 and will continue to update on a weekly cadence each Monday.
