Overview

The BidX Dashboard provides organic KPIs such as Orders [Organic] and Revenue [Organic]. You can use these metrics in various visualizations – like line charts, bar charts, or scorecards. Choose your preferred visualization whenever you create or edit a chart element under Values (y-axis). This grants you detailed insights into both your paid results and the revenue and orders generated organically.

Accessing the Function

To view organic data, go to Dashboards in the main menu and open the dashboard you want. You can either add a new element or edit an existing chart to include organic KPIs.

Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1: Create a New Element or Open an Existing One

First, navigate to Dashboards and select the dashboard you wish to work with. Click Add Element to start creating a new chart. Alternatively, you can open and edit any existing chart using the context menu.

Note: If you have view-only access, the option to add new elements may be greyed out.

Step 2: Configure Chart Type and Basics

Next, define the basic structure for your chart. Here you select the Chart Type, Date, and Grouping (x-axis). The time interval determines for which period the organic metrics are shown. The x-axis grouping controls whether metrics are broken down daily, weekly, etc.

Step 3: Select Organic Metrics

Now scroll to Values (y-axis) and open the selection dialog. Here you’ll find tabs for Organic, Paid, and Total KPIs. The Organic tab displays only organic metrics, such as Orders [Organic] (count of all orders not attributed to ads) or Revenue [Organic] (sum of revenue generated purely organically). This is especially helpful for tracking a product’s organic development over time or by market. When you select a metric, it will show as a line, bar, or value based on your chart type. The Selected Metrics area shows in real time which KPIs you’ve added. With Primary Metrics and Additional Metrics, you can order them by drag & drop, displaying the most important KPIs prominently. Note that some chart types limit how many metrics can be selected at once.

Step 4: Confirm Your Selection

Once you’ve made your choices, confirm in the dialog by clicking Save. If you want to cancel, click Cancel. This allows you to easily control which organic KPIs are added to your chart.

Step 5: Finalize the Chart

In the last step, check your chart preview and save the element by clicking Save. The chart is now created or updated in the dashboard. If you combine different KPIs – such as organic and paid – make sure the scale and axis settings are clear so values remain easily comparable.

Settings & Options

Using dashboard filters, you can further narrow down your view – for example, by marketplaces, specific products, or other dimensions. Filters directly affect all displayed organic KPIs. The Manage Templates feature is also helpful: it lets you save often-used dashboard setups with organic metrics for other users or accounts and quickly reuse them.

Limitations & Special Notes

• Depending on your user role and permissions, you might not be able to add or edit dashboard elements.
• Organic data like Orders [Organic] and Revenue [Organic] will be shown as long as they are available for your account.
• If you don’t see any metrics, it could be due to unavailable data – in this case, please contact support.
• The display of organic metrics can vary based on the chosen time period and attribution logic. Allow some time for the data to update as needed.

Tips & Best Practices

• Start with separate charts for “Organic” and “Paid” to compare their performance clearly. Later, you can combine both in a single chart to visualize the interplay.
• Set Primary Metrics (for example, Revenue [Organic]) as your main value and add Additional Metrics like Orders [Organic].
• Choose meaningful time periods – such as weekly or monthly – to better identify developments and trends.
• Before saving, check if any filters are active that might affect organic KPIs.
