When you Create a Custom Report, there are several report types to choose from. Each different report type will help you target the specific data which suits your organisational needs.
The Trending Report across Multiple Emails shows selected metrics for single or multiple mailings. To create a Trending Report across Multiple Emails, follow the instructions below:
To Create a Trending Report across Multiple Emails:
-
Create a Custom Report
-
On the Custom Reports screen, select the New report button.

The Create a new Report page is where you can choose your Report Name, Format and Type.

Note: Some report formats have a limit on how many emails you can report on. Limits - PDF(.pdf): 60 emails, Excel(.xls): 200 emails.
Choosing .pdf, .csv or .xls, as the Report Format will reveal additional Scheduling and Email Options (see below).

Choose the Trending report across multiple emails radio button under Report Type and click Next.
- Choose Parameters.
Use the Select Folder drop-down to choose your email Folder, and choose from the Select emails to report on radio buttons. These are the emails that your report will be based on.
Note: When selecting a Folder, you can select the option Choose when running report, however, this option is not available if you have scheduled the report in Step 3. Additionally, If you set the Folder to Choose when running the report, you will not be able to choose the Select emails option as above in step 5.
