What is a Segment?

 

In Zapiens, segments allow you to gather the members of your organization according to certain characteristics. For example, Areas, Departments, Workplace, etc.

 

In the Knowledge Dashboard, segments provide quantitative and qualitative data about what is known and unknown in your organization. Therefore, it is very important to make a quality segmentation. 

 

Each segment has associated segment values. For example, within the Department segment, the values would be HR, Administration, Customer Service, etc. 

 

In Zapiens there are 3 types of segments:

  1. Visible Segment: Enables the "Visible" option in a segment. The corresponding value of this segment will be visible in each user's profile in the App 

  2. Multiple Segment: Enable the "Multiple" option if there are people in your organization who have several values associated with the same segment 

  3. Public/Private Segment: Enable the "Public" option if you need the segment and its values to appear in the App's rankings

 







Note: Before you create the users you must create the segments and segment values.
