    Note

    Group dimensions cannot be referenced by calculated fields.

    • Northeast region: Heilongjiang,Liaoning,Jilin

    • North China region: Beijing,Tianjin,Hebei,Shanxi,Inner Mongolia

    • East China region: Shanghai,Jiangsu,Zhejiang,Anhui,Fujian,Jiangxi,Shandong

    • 18 years old ≤ Youth <40 years old

    • 40 years old ≤ Middle-aged <56 years old
