- Use labels to organize your accounts by categories, such as industry, location, or performance. You can apply labels at the account level or at the campaign level. You can also filter and sort your accounts by labels on your dashboard.
- Use cross-account reports to view and compare metrics across all your accounts or a subset of accounts. You can customize your reports by adding columns, segments, filters, and charts. You can also download or schedule your reports for future delivery.
- Use cross-account campaigns to create and edit campaigns that apply to multiple accounts at once. You can choose which accounts to include in each campaign and set different budgets and bids for each account.
- Use cross-account conversion tracking to track conversions across all your accounts using a single conversion action code. You can also import conversions from Google Analytics or other sources into your manager account.
- Use cross-account remarketing lists to create and share remarketing lists across all your accounts or a subset of accounts. You can use these lists to target customers who have visited or taken actions on any of your websites or apps.
