• Message class: CRM_MKTTGGRP_EXP - CRM Marketing: Messages for Target Group Selection

• Message number: 003

• Message text: Attributes and profiles cannot be linked in this way; see long text

What causes this issue?

You tried to specify profiles and attributes together under the same
profile template node, meaning that they would be linked as <LS>and</>
conditions.
However, attributes and profiles can only be linked on an <LS>or</>
basis, that is, you must enter them under separate profile template
nodes.

How can this happen?

CD_SHOP (profile template node)
,,AGE GROUP 20 - 30 (attribute)
,,MUSIC CATEGORY Pop (attribute)
,,STATUS Single (attribute)
CD_SHOP (profile template node)
,,Customer_A123 (profile)
,,Customer_A134 (profile)
The two profiles Customer_A123 and Customer_A134 are listed under a new
profile template node and are therefore linked with the attributes on
an <LS>or</> basis.

System Response

Error message; processing cannot continue.

How to fix this error?

To enter profiles, place your cursor on <LS>Base selection</> or
<LS>Further restrictions</> and then choose <LS>Add profiles</>.
