Something shifted last Tuesday, and nobody noticed until Friday. By then you had lost five days of bookings. The data to catch it was there the whole time.

A person checks the result before it reaches you. This is part of our Google Ads management work.
How Google Ads and SAP records line up
Google Ads and SAP share no customer or visit identifier. askotter puts them on one timeline instead, so a change in Google Ads clicks can be read against what SAP recorded in the same hours.
What anomaly detection uses from each
Anomaly detection needs a steady daily series with a known normal range.
From Google Ads that means cost per click and spend by campaign per day. From SAP it means daily order intake by sales organisation.
What each tool sees on its ownShow less
Google Ads on its own
Google Ads counts the conversions it can see through its own tag. It cannot tell a refunded sale from a kept one, or a junk lead from a good one.
Timing. Google Ads credits a conversion back to the date of the click, so yesterday's conversion count can still rise for days.
Access. The Google Ads API with read access to the account.
SAP on its own
SAP holds the booked order, the invoice and the customer master. It has no record of the marketing that produced the order.
Timing. SAP data usually reaches outside systems in scheduled extracts, so it runs as current as the extract schedule your ERP team sets.
Access. Read-only OData services or scheduled exports set up with your ERP team.
