Adding and Editing Audience Rules

Audience rules use simple queries to include or exclude users from membership in an audience. Each rule includes an operand, operator, and value.

The operand is the user or property you want to include in the query for this rule. The operator indicates how users compared to the value should be queried to include or exclude them from the audience. The value is the point of comparison used by the query.

On the View Audience Properties page, in the Audience Rules section, click Add rule.
On the Add Audience Rule page, click User to add a rule based on distribution list membership, security group, or reporting structure, or click Property to create a rule based on a user property.
If you clicked Property, click the relevant property in the drop-down list.
In the Operator drop-down list, click an operator to indicate how you want to compare the user or property with a given value.
In the Value drop-down list, type a value to which to compare the user or property selected for this rule.
Click OK.
