Requesting and Running an Attributes Analytics Report

At the beginning of each month, the system takes a snapshot of all active vendors in Catalogue. The snapshot captures data for 202 attributes.

Important: Each multiline attribute is counted once per GTIN, regardless of how many multiline occurrences (values) there are for each multiline attribute. Only attribute counts for items that were added or updated after a specified date are included in the Attributes Analytics Report. The default date is 2016-01-01.

After a snapshot of vendor data is taken, you can request an Attributes Analytics Report based on a given snapshot date. Catalogue saves up to 12 monthly snapshots of data, allowing you to create reports that show attribute population rates over the course of a year.

When you request a report, it is created as a CSV file and uses the retailer’s current access to a vendor’s account to determine which vendors to include in the report. You can save the data as a CSV text file that can be displayed in another application such as MS Excel.

Note: If a retailer has been granted access to any vendors’ accounts since the last time the report was run, those vendors are included in the report the next time the report is run.
