Total Visits count over 1 week is not correct

[dinesh_kumar_r]

Hi Team,

YOu can find my project here : https://sc5.omniture.com/x/5_9yvlr

Why total visit count is not matching with sum of all individual visits count. for instance:  As shown in the screen shot Total visit = 32.  If we sum up visits made by individual user ID( each row's)  is  48. I want to know why so much difference? Why Unspecified visits is not considered in the Total visits? Please share link where I can know more about this.

Hi Dinesh,

My first thought would be deduplication.

If I arrive and on hit 1 you do not know my ID but you do on hit 2 then I will be both unspecified and have a user id.

Thanks

Hi David,

Why we are removing duplicates visits?. A user can have multiple visits within a day or within a reporting period. If we want Unique visits then I agree for removing duplicates otherwise deduplication should not apply.  For Unique customer - deduplication is applicable if he does not clear the cache memory within reporting period. Do you agree?
