Issue Description You are considering archiving or deleting old programs, and you are wondering how that will affect the Lead field: Acquisition Program.   Issue Resolution If you delete a Marketo Program, the field will append a "deleted" at the end of the Program Name.   For example, if the Program Name was "July 2016 newsletter" for Acquisition Program, after deleting the Program, the field value would change to: "July 2016 newsletter  -  deleted (####)". The numbers represent an activity ID on the backend.   Note: Archiving Programs does not affect the Acquisition Program. Is this article helpful ? YesNo

Issue Description A newly created Program is not showing up in Program Cost Analysis Report. Issue Resolution The Program Cost Analysis Report takes a little time to show new Programs that have just been created. It doesn't do much good to show a success metric before a program has had a chance to succeed so it needs time in order for data to be collected. If you don't see the program in the report within 48 hours, check these things: If there is a view filter in place The program is active and approved If all that looks good contact Support for additional troubleshooting.

Issue Description You are utilizing Forms on Marketo Landing Pages, and want to run reporting on these forms.   Issue Resolution Currently the only asset reporting Marketo has is Email, and a little bit of Landing Page reporting. We would not have this ability to report on Forms.   One option would be to use Web Page reporting  -  this reported information would be limited to Marketo Pages with numbers of records who filled out the form, listed under "conversions." You could then create a Smart List to identify leads who have filled out these forms.     Is this article helpful ? YesNo

Issue Description Even though the report and smart list may be looking at exactly the same thing (e.g. an email sent to a specific group on a specific day), many times the numbers in the report do not match the results of the smart list. Issue Resolution Reports in Marketo like the Email Performance Report are returning results of activities that occurred in your instance, while smart lists return results of currently existing person records.  When a person is deleted or merged, the activities associated with the person do not get pruned or purged. So a smart list that looks for opened email will return all the currently existing records who have that open activity but will not return results of deleted or merged records.  Conversely, a report looking at the same thing will return all activities, even if the records no longer exist.

Issue Description You are considering archiving or deleting old programs, and you are wondering how that will affect reporting on membership of leads.   Issue Resolution If you delete a Marketo Program, the membership data will be lost. Technically, in the Lead record Activity Log, there will not be an activity for "no longer in program," but any and all reporting will not be able to report from deleted programs.  Keep in mind that Marketo Support cannot restore deleted programs.   Archiving Programs keeps program membership data. This means that Analytics reporting, including Revenue Explorer, will be able to see archived programs and the related data. However, smart lists will no longer be able to reference the archived program. For example, say the smart list was: "Member of Program, program is [name]". In this situation, the smart list wouldn't be able to locate the program. Is this article helpful ? YesNo
