View analytics by track

What this guide covers

Compare individual recordings across your catalog.

Analytics is performance reporting, not a royalty calculator. Streams, downloads, saves, store activity, releases, tracks, and markets can update on a different schedule from financial statements.

Before you start

• Choose the intended workspace and reporting period.
• Know whether you are comparing releases, tracks, stores, or markets.
• Use the same date range when comparing views.
• Treat reported values as directional performance data rather than guaranteed future earnings.

Step by step

1. 01

   Open Analytics and find the track breakdown.

2. 02

   Review the leading tracks in the selected reporting period.

3. 03

   Use the release association to understand the track’s catalog context.

4. 04

   Compare the track against platform and market views when planning promotion.

Check your work

• The selected period is correct.
• You are viewing the intended workspace or catalog scope.
• Release and track names match the catalog item you intended to inspect.
• Financial conclusions are checked against Royalties rather than inferred from streams alone.

Common mistakes to avoid

• Multiplying streams by a universal per-stream rate.
• Comparing analytics and statements from different reporting periods.
• Assuming missing recent data means a release earned nothing.
• Ignoring team or catalog-scope permissions when views differ between users.

What happens next

Use the performance pattern to plan promotion and catalog decisions, then use Royalties and the beneficiary portal for finalized accounting information.
