## Capping Activity and Targets

MCCP activities can be capped to prevent users from exceeding predetermined limits on the number of product activities, channel activities, and target interactions in a cycle. Once users reach the maximum number of activities for the product, channel, or target, additional activities are not counted towards their attainment. This helps ensure end users focus on high-quality interactions, and prevents overreliance on certain channels or excessive activity for a single product, channel, or target.

### Configuring Capping Activity and Targets for

[![Closed](../../../../../Skins/Default/Stylesheets/Images/transparent.gif)End Users](#)

To configure this feature:

1. Ensure [Configuring Multichannel Cycle Plans](../ConfigMCCP.htm) is complete.
2. Navigate to **Business Admin > Objects > mc\_cycle\_plan\_\_v**.
3. Populate maximum fields on the appropriate MCCP records to determine when activities or interactions are capped. Caps may be set for a channel, a target, a product, or for a combination:

* To cap channel activities, populate the channel\_activity\_max\_\_v field on an mc\_cycle\_plan\_channel\_\_v record. The value in this field represents the maximum number of activities a user can earn for channel attainment against the target.

* To cap target interactions, populate the channel\_interaction\_max\_\_v on an mc\_cycle\_plan\_target\_\_v record. The value in this field is the maximum number of interactions a user can earn for a target, across all channels in the cycle plan.

  When capping target interactions, the channel\_interaction\_goal\_\_v field must also be populated on the mc\_cycle\_plan\_target\_\_v record.

* To cap product activity, populate the product\_activity\_max\_\_v field on an mc\_cycle\_plan\_product\_\_v record. The value in this field is the maximum number of product activities allowed toward product attainment for the particular product.

When end users reach the cap for a channel, product, or target, additional activities are not counted towards their attainment for the cycle. For example, if the email channel is capped at three, any additional emails sent to MCCP targets are not counted.

When end users edit MCCP goals, the maximum displays under the goal.
