Advanced Configuration covers technical settings that affect data privacy capabilities and member profile linking. These settings are typically configured once at program setup and rarely changed afterwards.

Accessing advanced configuration

Navigate to Configuration → Advanced Configuration → Technical Settings.
Advanced Configuration — Technical Settings tab showing Add Linked Loyalty Program section, Allow Export of Member PI Data toggle with description, and Enable accounts and card linking to Members toggle with expandable More Information section

Member PI data export

This toggle controls whether personally identifiable information (PII) can be included in member report exports. What counts as PI data:
  • Email addresses
  • Phone numbers
  • National identity numbers
  • Any custom member attributes that were flagged as PI during attribute creation

Enabling PI data export

Toggle the setting on in Technical Settings and confirm when prompted.
This is a one-way action. Once the PI data export toggle is enabled, it cannot be disabled. All changes are logged in the Audit Trail.
Enabling this feature allows bulk export of sensitive personal data. Ensure that only authorised administrators hold the export permission, and that exported files are handled in compliance with your organisation’s data protection policies and applicable regulations (GDPR, DPDP Act, or similar).
After enabling, administrators with the PI Data Access permission can include PI fields in member exports. The Export Linked Accounts & Cards option also becomes available with this permission.

Customer relational data (CRD) — card and account linking

CRD refers to external account or card information that can be associated with member profiles. This is used in programs where loyalty is tied to a financial product — for example, a credit card loyalty program where the card number is linked to the member’s loyalty profile. CRD fields available when enabled:
FieldDescription
Card / account numbersCredit card numbers, EMI account numbers, or other external identifiers
Sub-relationship classificationThe type of linked account or card (credit, debit, loan, etc.)
Account statusCurrent status of the linked financial account
Member relationship reference IDThe linking identifier between the Loyalife member and the external account

Enabling CRD visibility

  1. Go to Advanced Configuration → Technical Settings.
  2. Locate the Enable accounts and card linking to members toggle.
  3. Enable it and confirm your selection.
Once enabled:
  • The View Linked Cards & Accounts button becomes visible on member profiles (for users with the appropriate permission)
  • The CRD search option appears on the Members list, allowing admins to find members by card or account number
  • The Export Linked Accounts & Cards option appears in the member export menu (requires PI data access permission as well)

Exporting CRD data

Exporting CRD reports requires both:
  1. PI data access permission in the user’s role
  2. Report creation capability in the user’s role
Exported files follow this naming convention:
Cards and Account Export [User Name] [Date].csv
The export includes: card numbers, sub-relationship classification, account status, and member relationship reference IDs.
CRD export files contain sensitive financial identifiers. Apply the same data handling and storage controls as for other PII exports — encrypted storage, access logging, and retention limits per your data protection policy.

Pre-processing logic

The Pre-Processing Logic tab lets you deploy a custom script that transforms incoming data before the loyalty engine processes it. This is for programs that receive transaction files in non-standard formats or need field remapping before rule evaluation.
Advanced Configuration — Pre-Processing Logic tab showing the pipeline diagram (SFTP Upload → Pre-Processing → Internal Engine → Loyalty Software) and a Pre-Processing Script editor with TXN and CPD tabs, a code editor panel, and Reset to Default / Save buttons
The script editor supports TXN (transaction) and CPD (customer profile data) file types independently. Use Reset to Default to restore the original script if a custom transformation causes processing errors.

Troubleshooting

The “View Linked Cards & Accounts” button is not visible on member profiles.
  • Confirm the CRD linking toggle is enabled in Advanced Configuration.
  • Verify the viewing user has the CRD visibility permission in their role.
CRD search is not appearing on the Members list.
  • CRD search requires the CRD linking toggle to be enabled in Advanced Configuration.
Export does not include PI fields even though the PI export toggle is enabled.
  • Check that the exporting user’s role includes the PI Data Access permission.
  • Verify that the specific fields you expect to see were marked as PI attributes during attribute creation.
