This screen enables you to track specific specifications types by market segment, and can be sorted by items, or by projects. Quickly see where your business is coming from, and which brands are being spec’d the most in each segment. Drill down to the project level in a few short clicks.
TIP: Be sure to click on the Market Segment rows to reveal more details.
You may view a specific market segment in various ways:
1. Show Items Button – will display the Market Segment and the number of items that are designated as primaries, alternates or equals on projects in SpecPath®.
2. To only see market segments in which your products have been specified, click the check box. To see all segments, simply uncheck the box.
3. Sort using filters.
4. Sort by market segment, or specification type. Simply click on the arrows on the top of each column.
5. You will also notice all market segments are in blue. This indicates these are active links. Click the segment, or anywhere within the row, and you will immediately see more detailed information for that dealer below. If a segment has been selected, a details table will appear at the bottom of the page. The detailed information is a breakdown of brand specification by items, or by project. For instance, if you have chosen corrections as your market segment, and are viewing under ITEMS, the detailed data below will show you the total number of all item specification types you currently have within that segment, including primary, alternative, and equal. And if you scroll to the right, you will also see a total count of all items.
6. For additional sorting to work with your data in an outside software tool (Excel, Word, etc.) or print the table information, you can export the table that is displayed based on your search (or no search at all) click on the Export to CSV button and all the information in your results table will be exported to a file that you can save.
To export your data, you can either open the file with Microsoft Excel or another program or you can save the file to your computer or laptop. The file is saved as a comma separated file through the download function in your browser. You may also export to PDF.
