Create segments

To create a segment:

1. Click add new segment.
2. Define the segment. All fields are required. The following table describes the fields.

   Field	Description
   Segment Name	The segment name must be unique. The segment name appears in summary journal entries. If the segment is used in a journal run, the segment name appears as a field available for export on the Journal Entry object in the Journal Entry Item data source. Character limit: 100
   System ID	Enter a system ID or use the system ID that is automatically generated when you enter a segment name. The system ID must be unique. If the segment is used in a journal run, the system ID becomes a field that you can query through the Journal Entry Item data source using Export ZOQL. Character limit: 100
   Object	Select an object from the drop-down menu.
   Field	The Field drop-down populates with fields associated with the object you selected in the Object field. Any custom fields that you have created on that object will also appear. Note: Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) are currently not supported by GL Segments.Zuora is working on removing this limitation by supporting ACF for GL segments and segmentation rules. During this period, use the existing custom fields UI to setup GL segments associated to custom fields.

   For more information about supported objects and fields, see Fields Supported by Segments.
