Corrections

Corrections can be an alternative or a complement to tariffs. They’re needed if, for any reason, the payments have changed or it’s impossible to calculate the costs. For example, due to fines, or partner bonuses, or a complex arrangement.

Corrections are tied to the application. The correction amount is evenly distributed over a set time period according to basic metrics, excluding social and demographic data, and geography. When building a report, the correction value is added to the «Cost Corrections» and «Campaign cost» metrics.

1. In the campaigns list, choose the one to which you need to add corrections.

   • Currency * — currency of correction. For reports in other currencies, currency will be converted at the exchange rate on each day of the correction.
   • Start date * — beginning of correction.
   • End date * — end of correction.
   • Timezone * — the timezone for the correction to be tied to. If you build a report with other timezones, the part of the correction sum will be displayed on a date outside the specified range (according to the time difference between the correction and report timezones).
