The Source Statistics Overview Window​

The ​Source Statistics Overview window provides an overview of all existing sources in the system. Individual statistics can be retrieved for each source.

Source statistics make it possible to evaluate the contacts generated by internal or external sources and their quality. Based on source statistics, the extent to which a partner program has had a positive effect on a contact list or which campaign has particularly contributed to the acquisition of new contacts can be derived.

For more information, see Source Statistics.

Source statistics are only available if you are assigned permission ​1113: Statistics: View Source Statistics.
