Each report in Reports & Analytics uses a dedicated dimension and default metric. You can change the metric in each report and add breakdowns if desired. The following lists provide what dimension is used in each report.
NOTE
Your reports menu can look different depending on customizations an admin in your organization has made. See Menu customizing in the Admin user guide.
IMPORTANT
Effective December 31, 2023, Adobe intends to discontinue Reports & Analytics and its accompanying reports and features. At that time, Reports & Analytics and all of its reports and schedules will stop working. The reports, visualizations and underlying technology that power Reports & Analytics no longer meet Adobe’s technology standards. Most Reports & Analytics features are available within Analysis Workspace. Since the release of Analysis Workspace in 2015, Reports & Analytics functionality and capabilities have been moved to Analysis Workspace and a threshold of workflow parity has been reached. This notice explains the end-of-life process.
