Creating a Revenue Report

Jeongwon KimWritten by Jeongwon Kim,

The Revenue Report allows you to view the revenue generated by users who installed the app or opened a deep link during the set date range. Various metrics are available to create a customized report that will allow you to analyze your revenue data in depth.

The Revenue Report is available in [Reports]>[Revenue] on the Airbridge dashboard. Only the Owner or In-house Marketers have access to the Revenue Report.

Configuring a Report View

The configuration box offers options for configuring the granularity, date range, Start Event, Revenue Event, Metric, GroupBy, and filter to create a customized report view that suits your needs.

Cohort

Configuring a cohort in the Revenue Report allows you to analyze the revenue generated by a specific user segment. The cohort configuration is optional. Click Add to configure a cohort.

Read on to learn how to set up a cohort by configuring condition clauses.

Granularity

The Revenue Report displays the data in different time ranges depending on the granularity option selected in the configuration box. Each option comes with a maximum number of ranges that can be displayed in the report. Each time range is based on the Airbridge App Timezone.

Refer to the following table to understand the granularity options.

Attention

Event data older than 180 days from the day of report creation will be displayed as Unattributed for Google Ads (google.adwords), Meta ads (facebook.business), and TikTok For Business (tiktok) to comply with their privacy policies.

The Revenue Report shows the revenue metric data of users who performed the Revenue Event during the set date range. Use the calendar filter to configure the date range.

Data older than 180 days from the day of report creation is available. The maximum date range configurable is 31 days, 12 weeks, or 3 months.

Refer to the following information when configuring the calendar filter.

  

Start Event and Revenue Event

Data available in the Revenue Report

The Revenue Report only shows App event data; Web and iOS SKAdNetwork event data are not available.

The Revenue Report shows the revenue metrics of users who performed the Start Event and the Revenue Event.

Start Event

A Start Event is an event that is performed by the user who initiated the app engagement. Data of users who didn't perform the Start Event will be excluded from the reporting. Options for Start Event include Install (App), Deeplink Open (App), and Deeplink Pageview (App). At least 1 Start Event must be selected to create a report.

For example, if Install (App) and Deeplink Open (App) are set as Start Events, the data of users who have performed an Install (App) event or Deeplink Open (App) event within the set date range will be aggregated.

 

Revenue Event

The Revenue Event is the event performed by users who performed the Start Event and is closely related to the revenue generated by the user. The Revenue Event is aggregated up to 31 days (Day 30) from the day the user performed the Start Event.

Standard Events and Custom events can be set as revenue events, and up to 5 events can be set as Revenue Events.

Attribution process in the Revenue Report

The Revenue Event is considered the subsequent event of the Start Event that occurred most recently before the Revenue Event. If a new Start Event occurs, the previous Start Event can no longer claim the revenue generated by the Revenue Events. The last Start Event takes all the credit for the revenue generated by all Revenue Events that occur afterward.

This attribution process may cause a data discrepancy between the Revenue Report and the actual report.

Metric and view type

The Revenue Report offers 6 revenue metrics to choose from. The revenue metric data will be made visible in the view type selected.

Metric

The available metric options and the calculation methods are described in the table below. To learn more about how the calculation methods differ by report settings, refer to the examples in this article.

View type

The metric is displayed differently depending on the view type you select.

 

Predictive LTV

You can enable the predictive lifetime value (pLTV) in the report by clicking the checkbox and selecting the calculation period from the drop-down menu. By enabling the pLTV feature, you can view the predictive revenue amount that is expected to be generated from your service. For more details about the pLTV, refer to this article.

 

GroupBy and filter

Attention

All values displayed in the Revenue Report with the GroupBy and Filter options applied are based on users who performed the Start Event.

GroupBys are used to split the metric data into groups. Up to 4 GroupBys can be selected. The data are visible in the table from the left in the order of the configuration.

Filters can be configured to display specific data in the chart and table. To configure a filter, select the filter option, operator, and value.

Sub-metric

A sub-metric is an additional metric you can select to display on the report. The Revenue Report supports the following 6 sub-metrics.

When selecting a metric, 3-4 sub-metrics are automatically selected. The sub-metrics can be added or deleted like the metrics. The sub-metric data are made available in fixed columns in the table.

 

Understanding the Revenue Report

The Revenue Report displays the revenue metric data at the chosen granularity in charts and tables. The revenue data will be displayed in the App Standard Currency. For details about the calculation methods used in the Revenue Report, refer to this article.  

Chart

The Revenue Report displays the metric data in a line chart, with the values of the data series visualized in different colored lines. By default, 8 datasets identified with the top total revenue make it to the chart. You can add or remove specific data series from the chart by checking or unchecking the checkboxes next to the dataset names in the table.

You can add or remove specific data series from the chart by clicking on the legend labels.

When hovering over the chart, you can view the data labels that identify the specific data points.

To view the value of a specific data point, hover over a specific data point.

Adding the right axis to the chart

When the values vary widely among the data series, you can add a secondary axis to the chart to improve its readability. Click on a data point of the data series you want to add a secondary axis to and select Right axis. The right axis appears, and the axis labels will accommodate the selected data series for improved readability.

For example, if Channel A's metric data is significantly smaller than the metric data of other Channels, the trend of Channel A's data isn’t easy to track in the chart. When adding the right axis for Channel A’s metric data, the Channel A data will be visualized in dotted lines, and the right axis labels will be set for a better understanding of the Channel A data.

 

Table

By default, 8 datasets identified with the top total revenue make it to the chart. From the table, you can check or uncheck the checkboxes next to the dataset names to add or remove the data set from the chart. Click the top checkbox to check or uncheck all 8 datasets at once.

The table shows the sub-metric data and the metric data by the set granularity (Day N, Week N, Month N).

Supported features

Airbridge reports support various features, from saving reports to sharing them with others.
