The default view of your advertising dashboard only displays active ads.
This means that statistics of inactive or deleted ads will not be displayed.
Viewing these statistics is important to understand what worked or didn't work in the past, to help improve your current ads' performance.
Furthermore, ads can produce conversions after they are turned off. This is due to the 7-day attribution window.
In this guide, we will learn how to change the dashboard view in order to see statistics of inactive or deleted ads.
