Fallout Visits vs Freeform Visits for specific URL

Hi all, I know this question was raised in past multiple times but - from my perspective - wasn’t fully answered yet. I read through the exisitng posts here in the experience league but am still confused.

First: I am aware about the differences between hit and visit segments and that fallout analysis handles dimension items as an visit (or visitor) segments.

The question came up, when we comared visit numbers from a freeform table with a fallout analysis:

As you can see in the fallout analysis it says 5.734 visits. When I create a visit segment which contains the same URL as the fallout I get the same number when populating a time dimension to it. But now the confusion: when I breakdown the single dimension items and take a look at the exact same dimension item, which is filtered in the visit segment / fallout, I get lower visit numbers? There are no other filters applied in the panel. Any ideas?

 

Thanks you all in advance!

Best, Paul

We’ve also seen something similar.  The Fallout with Visitor metric is acting like a Visitor Segment instead of a Visitor Dimension in addition to the Visits not matching up for the first step in a funnel vs looking at the data in a table.   Seems like something has changed in the backend for funnel viz recently.
