Member data properties allow you to segment and organize the members of your organization beyond organization/team structures. This powerful feature is especially useful for creating segments that can be applied in recognition, rewards, and survey analytics, enabling you to gain deeper insights into your workforce.
Default Properties
Matter provides several default member properties, including:
Date of Birth

These properties help you start with a basic set of data for organizing your members.
Custom Properties
You also have the flexibility to create custom properties to suit your organization's unique needs. Common examples of custom properties include:
Job Title

T-Shirt Size
You can get creative and define properties that matter most to your organization’s operations.
Property Types
When creating custom properties, Matter supports various property types to ensure your data is structured correctly:
Date: Ideal for tracking dates like start dates or promotion dates.
Choices: Create predefined options for a property, such as office locations.
Text: Use free text to capture information such as member names or custom labels.
