Actual exam question for Adobe's AD0-E208 exam
Question #: 27
Topic #: 6
[All AD0-E208 Questions]

Various reports show None, Unspecified, Other, or Unknown, depending on the specific report viewed. Generally, this breakdown means that the variable was not defined or otherwise unavailable.

Which statement explains the possible behavior of the data?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

The statement that explains the possible behavior of the data is that this happens when a user comes to a site for the first time and makes a purchase without firing eVar1. If orders are viewed in the eVar1 report, there is no value to attribute this order to, so it will appear as ''NONE''. This means that eVar1 was not set on any page or hit during the visit where the order occurred, so there is no way to associate the order with any value of eVar1. The other statements are not correct explanations of why None, Unspecified, Other, or Unknown may appear in various reports.

Hah, I bet the developer who wrote that report is just laughing at us trying to figure out what's going on. 'Unspecified'? 'Other'? Might as well call it the 'I Have No Idea' report.

Option C sounds like the most likely explanation to me. If a user makes a purchase without setting the eVar1 variable, it makes sense that the order would show up as 'NONE' in the report. Gotta love those pesky data gaps!

Yeah, those data gaps can definitely cause some confusion. It's important to make sure all variables are properly set to avoid any discrepancies in the reports.

I'm not sure, but option C also seems plausible as it explains how 'NONE' values can occur in certain situations.

Ah, I see. So the data is just being reported as 'None', 'Unspecified', 'Other', or 'Unknown' when the variable is not defined or available. Interesting, I wonder if there's a way to handle that in the reporting side.

C) This happens when a user comes to a site for the first time and makes a purchase without firing eVar1. If orders are viewed in the eVar1 report, there is no value to attribute this order to, so it will appear as 'NONE'.

B) Similarly to non-mobile hits in mobile reports, mobile hits in all Visitor Profile I Technology reports are listed as 'UNSPECIFIED'.

A) When viewing classification data, any value that does not have data associated with that particular classification returns 'OTHER'. To resolve this issue, create a classification export file and classify the appropriate columns.

I agree with Glenn, option A makes sense because it addresses the issue of 'OTHER' values in classification data.

I think the possible behavior of the data is explained by option A.
