Northbeam platform revenue is not CRM booked revenue
On one Northbeam platform-CRM cut, put |platform revenue $ − CRM revenue $| over CRM revenue $. That ratio × 100 is NB platform-CRM gap %.
Pair: Platform-vs-CRM gap on Traffic. Cash sibling: platform-vs-cash. Modeled sibling: platform-vs-modeled.
Inputs
Platform revenue $ — Northbeam platform-reported revenue dollars in the cut.
CRM revenue $ — CRM booked revenue dollars on that same Northbeam platform-CRM cut.
NB platform-CRM gap % = |platform − CRM| ÷ CRM × 100. A tall NB platform-CRM gap % usually means the pixel export and the CRM ledger disagree — chase the mapping that owns the spread; leave blank chips alone.
Hard stops
Leave NB platform-CRM gap % blank rather than invent. Keep platform-vs-cash or platform-vs-modeled rows out of platform/CRM boxes. Keep unattributed-spend mix out of these dollars. Keep one brand per run when that pixel owns the spread.
