class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Flights tab includes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Metric tiles for Report Date, Impressions, Total Cost, Revenue, and Total Cost CPM and a Reporting Interval<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Campaign Lifetime Pacing<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Flight Pacing<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A <strong>Flights<\/strong> section<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A <strong>Lines<\/strong> section<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Metric Tiles and Reporting Interval<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>Reporting Interval<\/strong> determines the date range used for the metric tiles displayed at the top of the Flights tab. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Changing the Reporting Interval updates the displayed Report Date, Impressions, Total Cost, Revenue, and Total Cost CPM for the selected period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Metrics are displayed using the Campaign\u2019s selected <strong>Pacing Time Zone<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The metric tiles provide a summary of Campaign performance for the selected Reporting Interval.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Report Date:<\/strong> The date or date range represented by the selected Reporting Interval.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Impressions:<\/strong> The total number of impressions delivered by the Campaign during the selected Reporting Interval.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Total Cost:<\/strong> The total Campaign spend during the selected Reporting Interval, including media costs and any applicable margins or fees.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Revenue:<\/strong> The total Campaign Revenue for the selected Reporting Interval.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Total Cost CPM:<\/strong> The Campaign\u2019s Total Cost per thousand impressions, calculated as:<strong>Total Cost CPM = (Total Cost \/ Impressions) \u00d7 1,000<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The metric tiles reflect Campaign performance for the selected Reporting Interval and are separate from the Flight-specific budgets and pacing displayed elsewhere on the tab.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Campaign Lifetime and Flight Pacing<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The top of the Flights tab provides pacing information for both the overall Campaign and the applicable Flight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Campaign Lifetime Pacing<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Lifetime Pacing<\/strong> shows how the Campaign is pacing against its overall Campaign Budget and full Campaign date range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lifetime Pacing considers the Campaign\u2019s:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Start Date<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>End Date<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Campaign Budget<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Delivery to date<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Use Lifetime Pacing to evaluate whether the Campaign as a whole is ahead of, behind, or aligned with its expected delivery pace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Flight Pacing<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Flight Pacing<\/strong> shows how the Campaign is pacing against the applicable Flight\u2019s Budget and date range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Flight Pacing considers the Flight\u2019s:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Start Date<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>End Date<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Flight Budget<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Delivery attributed to that Flight<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because <strong>Lifetime Pacing<\/strong> evaluates the full Campaign while <strong>Flight Pacing<\/strong> evaluates an individual Flight period, the two pacing values may differ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, a Campaign may be on pace across its full lifetime while the current Flight is temporarily underpacing, or the current Flight may be pacing well even if earlier Flights caused the Campaign\u2019s Lifetime Pacing to fall behind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Flights Section<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>Flights<\/strong> section displays each configured Flight and its
