The Cost update feature provides the ability to manually change the cost values.

In the process of working with the tracker, there may be situations when costs are displayed incorrectly. This can happen due to incorrect data entry or incorrect transmission from the traffic source. To avoid distortions in the report, AdsBridge provides the ability to manually change costs using the Cost update feature.

These instructions will help you make adjustments quickly and correctly while maintaining data transparency and accuracy:

1. Request access to the feature from your AdsBridge manager.

2. In the CAMPAIGNS section, click on the campaign where you want to change the cost value.

In the top right corner where the line of icons are placed you will see the icon Update total costs.

3. Next, you will see a pop-up with the necessary fields to fill out

In the period field you can select the period for which you want to change your cost data.

Please note! The maximum cost update period is 31 days!

You also cannot update costs for today, as the data is still being aggregated.

In the cost value field you need to specify the cost value.

The cost currency will be the same as the currency selected in the first step of creating this campaign.

You also need to choose a cost update by:

CPV, total CPV, CPA, total CPA.

Total CPV takes the entered value and divides it by the total number of visits for the selected campaign for the selected period.

Total CPA works the same way, except it divides the value by the total number of conversions.

So if in the first step of creating a campaign you have a cost of, for example, 10.

But you need to edit the cost value for a specific period, for example, value by 5, then you can do it with this function.

And in the statistics you will be able to see already changed amount of your costs.

Also in case if you need to update costs by token you can also do it by using this function.

In the CAMPAIGNS section, click on the campaign.

In the upper right corner, there are a line of icons, you will see update costs by token icon.

Next, a pop-up will appear in front of you, with the necessary fields to fill out.

The fields are identical except the Token field.

There's you need to select which specific Token you need to make a change to the cost value.

For example, your Token 1 is {zone_id}.

If you want to change the data for zone 12345678, just specify this zone in the relevant field - only this zone will be affected by the cost changes.

Manually updating cost values is a convenient tool for correcting data in the tracker, which helps to maintain accurate accounting and avoid reporting errors. By following these instructions, you will be able to correct data quickly and efficiently, ensuring that the information in your report is up to date.
