Syntax Description
Description:
Get total advertising spend of campaign between any period.
⚠️ Important Note:
Data from all advertising related functions are based on your advertising attributed sales. Not regular organic sales.
When you see datapoints such as sales7d or conversions7d, it means the SP SALES or the SP CONVERSIONS. Not the total sales over the last 7 days. Only the converted SP or PPC SALES. This is the same for spend, units sold, and performance numbers. It is all based on the PPC spend, PPC units sold, PPC performance.
- Regular advertising functions (non HIST functions) aggregate the values of the period you enter. E.g. SPPRODSALES() will display the combined data over the period you enter such as “last month”.
- HIST functions such as SPSALESPRODHIST() displays the daily value.
- All values are PPC attributed data.
