There are two changes to report in the adCenter Report Center since our upgrade this past weekend (read our previous blog posts about other updates to credit card management and keyword research). First off, with the new Run report action, you can save time by refreshing data in your recent reports and view the updated information:

  1. Click the Reports tab.
  2. On the adCenter Report Center page, under Your last 20 reports, select the check box next to the report that you’d like to refresh.
  3. Click Actions, and then click Run report.

After adCenter updates the data in your report you will be able to see the most up-to-date information.

Another new time-saving feature is the ability to create reports with similar settings:

  1. On the Report Center page, under Your last 20 reports, select the check box next to the report you want to use as the basis for your new report.
  2. Click Actions, and then click Create report like this.
  3. The Create new report page opens, displaying the basic and advanced settings of the original report.
  4. Select any new settings that you want to apply to your new report.
  5. Click Create New Report.

You can also create a new report like an existing one from the report view page. If you are viewing a report in adCenter and you want to create another one like it, you can select the Create report like this button to create a new similar report.

For more information, please see What's New with adCenter on advertising.microsoft.com and be sure to let us know what you think of these changes over in the adCenter Forum.
