Understanding Royalty Payments and the Sales Dashboard (PublishDrive Webinar)

Описание: In this PublishDrive webinar, we walk through the Sales Analytics dashboard and the Royalty Payments dashboard so you can confidently understand what you’re seeing, why numbers sometimes differ, and when payouts actually happen.

You’ll learn how to:

Use dashboard filters (date range, paid vs. free, titles/series, countries, stores) to pinpoint the exact data you need
Read key metrics like copies, refunds, and estimated earnings
Export Sales Analytics data to Excel (including sales date, ISBN, transaction type, quantity, unit price, royalty amount, country, and format)
Understand negative transactions and refunds (and why they appear in reports)
Know how often reporting refreshes, and why it varies by store (some are near real-time; others update by the 15th of the following month)
Why Sales Analytics and Royalty Payments might not match month-to-month (stores “close” months differently, such as 15th-to-15th)
Navigate Royalty Payments: unpaid earnings, payout date, withholding, payout history, and downloading invoices/reports
Set up payout essentials: completing your tax form and choosing a payout threshold (default is $50; no “zero threshold” due to transaction fees)
