The Manage Exclusions page shows you all active exclusions for the selected publisher, group, or station. If you have previously removed an exclusion, it does not appear in the Manage Exclusions page.
When you arrive at the page you must select the publisher, group, or station and click Run to see the exclusions.
Removing Exclusions
Removing an exclusion from the Manage Exclusions page is similar to removing it from the Royalty Explore report. However, the effective date of the exclusion is today (the day you remove the exclusion), whereas in Royalty Explore the effective date is the beginning of the selected report period. Also, be aware that (depending on the item's Excluded date) the item might have been excluded from previous reports that were submitted to your royalty distribution organization.
To remove an exclusion from the Manage Exclusions page:
- Select the publisher, group, or station and click Run to run the report.
- If necessary, use the filter to narrow the scope of the report until you find the exclusion you wish to remove.
- Un-select the Excluded box for the item(s) you want to remove from the exclusions list.
- Read the notice on the confirmation message that appears, and click Remove Exclusion.
The item is removed from the exclusions list and will be included in the next (and future) Royalty Explore report.
Legacy Exclusions
If you have migrated to Triton Metrics Royalty Reports from the Ando Royalty Reporting tool, your legacy exclusions have been brought over with the migration.
Exclusions Usage Notes
When and how exclusions appear on the Managing Exclusions page and in Royalty Explore reports depends on when they were added or removed as well as the date range for the Royalty Explore report. the usage notes below should help you understand this delicate balance.
- Remember that Royalty Explore reports are based on a date range, while the Manage Exclusions list is based on a snapshot of the current exclusions at the time when you click the Run button.
- Exclusions in the Manage Exclusions page don’t always appear in a Royalty Explore report. This happens because the Manage Exclusions page shows only a snapshot of your current exclusions; if the exclusions were made after your Royalty Explore report end date, they won’t affect reports from before that date. To avoid this, exclude the items directly from the Royalty Explore report.
- Exclusions in the Royalty Explore report won’t appear in the Manage Exclusions page if those items were removed from the exclusion list after the end date of your report. To avoid this, remove the exclusions directly from the Royalty Explore report.
- When you remove an exclusion from the Manage Exclusions page on a day that is within the date range of a report in Royalty Explore, the item will appear twice in the Royalty Explore report; once showing it included and once showing it excluded. To avoid this, apply the same setting for both occurrences in the Royalty Explore report (either add both to your exclusions, or remove both).
