Events-Feature
In this help article we explain how our events feature works and how to set up events.
Events are displayed directly in the chart.
This allows you to quickly see correlations between an event and a change in the metrics.
For example, if you change the images on the Amazon listing, this is automatically captured as an event. This is shown in the chart as a vertical line. You can then easily see if and how the change in images has affected your metrics such as conversion rate or sales.
By events, we mean events and changes that occur on a listing, for example.
It can be a change from price, title, image, loss of buy box. (Many of these events are automatically recorded by Sellerfox - more about that here: Automatically tracked events).
But it could also be, for example, an external marketing action that you want to manually store as an event in Sellerfox.
If there is an event for the selected product in the period under consideration, it will be displayed as a vertical line in the diagram.
If the event extends over a period of time, it will be highlighted in gray.
You can change the display of the events.
To do so, simply click on "**Advanced chart settings**".
The details of an event can be viewed simply by clicking on the event in the chart.
A window will open showing all the events of that time period. You can view all the details using the dropdown.
You can also view all events via the Events menu (left menu).
Here you can filter by date, event type and products.
You can see all details about the event via the event dropdown.
You can also create events manually.
This can be useful for external marketing events, for example, or for other measures that you want to enter.
You can create events in 2 ways: via the Events menu or via the diagram.
Click on the data point in the diagram for the desired date.
