Troubleshooting

Report shows no data?

  1. Check the date range includes active campaign days

  3. Ensure placement wasn't paused during that period

PDF not generating?

  1. Try a shorter date range
  2. Clear browser cache
  3. Try a different browser

Scheduled reports not sending?

  1. Check the schedule is enabled
  2. Verify email addresses are correct
  3. Check spam folders

Data doesn't match dashboard?

Reports use the same data as the dashboard. If numbers differ:

  1. Check date ranges match exactly
  2. Dashboard may show real-time; reports use aggregated data
  3. Refresh both and compare again
