Scheduled Reports

Scheduled Reports automate the process of data segmentation, by alerting you on a granular level about changes in the SERP that directly affect campaign performance and business objectives.

By utilizing Saved Filters, Scheduled Reports encompass all the advanced filtering capability available in the platform, allowing you to easily create custom reports, delivered directly to your inbox on a daily, weekly or monthly basis.

Example notifications:

• When a new competitor appears on a specific search term
• When new ads run containing specific text, defined by you
• When competitors, affiliates or other partners use your brand terms in their ad text
• When a specific competitor or competitor group have run new ads

Before you can create a Scheduled Report, you will need to create a Saved Filter for the report to run against.

FAQs

Why can't I change the Report Type of an existing Scheduled Report?

Once a report has been created, you cannot retrospectively change the report type or format.  If you want to want to change this criteria, you will need to create a new one.

 

At what time will the report be received?

As soon as data is processed for yesterday in your region (usually by 9am), the report will be emailed.

 

Who can these reports be sent to?

PDF files (available for Market reports) can be sent to any email address as they will be attached to the email. CSV files are sent as a link, so the recipient will need an Adthena login to download the file.
