I’m looking at how to write an expression in PSM for a customer that wants to dynamically
Change an image (background) based on their Office location (variable) But they have 6 different backgrounds for each user which changes on groups of 100 and not every user will have all 6 Backgrounds, some might be only 1 or 3 or all 6. This is a Data field value.
i.e. user A in Montreal could have 300 businesscards, 100 of each type of background image.
User B in Paris could have 500 bussinesscards, 100 of each type of background image.

is this possible and how would you write an expression for it.
I can send the files if needed.
yes in PSMC its possible but customer is using PSM 7.2.8
Thanks

Hi,

I would suggest that you contact the Technical Support team, as they will need to look at the data to see if it's possible to build an expression. Unfortunately, it's been a while since I've used PSM myself, so I don't have an example of expression to give out at this time.

Regards,
Raphaël Lalonde-Lefebvre

Hi Raphael,

Solved it with Hiro's help, I had to put each User in the Data as multiple records, then I could write an expression on dynamically changing the background based on another Data field value.
I have zipped up file if anyone wants to check it out.
