The Conversion adjustment segment and the Days to conversion or adjustment segment can help you understand the effect that conversion adjustments have on the conversion metrics reported in your Google Ads account.
This article explains how these segments work, and how to add them to your reports.
About conversion adjustment segments
- The Conversion adjustment segment shows you the original conversion value and count compared to the change in value and count after the conversion was recorded.
- The Days to conversion or adjustment is the total amount of time from when the impression happened until the conversion and until the adjustment. Note: These are shown in two separate rows.
About uploading multiple adjustments
It's possible that a conversion may need to be adjusted more than once. For example, when 2 or more items in an order are returned at different times. If you have more than one adjustment for a conversion in your spreadsheet, the adjustment with the earlier adjustment time will be processed first.
However, if a conversion is retracted or an adjustment drops the value of the conversion down to 0, the conversion will be removed from your reports and Google Ads won't process any subsequent adjustments to it.
