Northbeam spend-seat hole is not Hyros spend-seat hole
On one Northbeam spend-seat cut, compute (live spend accounts − connected) ÷ live spend accounts × 100. That is NB spend-seat %.
Pair: Ad-account coverage gap on Traffic. Hyros sibling: spend-seat. Dollar sibling: spend coverage.
What you type
Connected ad accounts — Ad accounts linked in Northbeam for the cut.
Live spend accounts — Ad accounts that booked spend in that same Northbeam cut.
NB spend-seat % = (live − connected) ÷ live × 100. Fat NB spend-seat % usually means connection lag — chase those seats; never invent an NB spend-seat chip.
What not to do
Do not invent NB spend-seat %. Do not load a Hyros ad-account roster into Northbeam spend-seat fields. Do not mix spend dollars into account counts. Do not treat paused zero-spend accounts as live.
