# Generate spot statistics

By default, the player counts how many times a spot is played and sends this information to IXM One.

- You can use this data to create a spot statistics report that shows how many spots were played and how many times each spot was played.
- The report is created as a CSV file.

## Generate spot statistics report

To generate a spot statistics report, perform the following steps:

1. Go to **Reports > Reports**.
2. Select the **Spot statistics** tab.
3. Specify the following report settings:

| **Date from** | Specify from which date to create the spot statistics. |
| --- | --- |
| **Date to** | Specify until which date to create the spot statistics. |
| **Spot** | Select one of the following options: - **For all spots**: creates a report for all spots. - **For one spot**: creates a report for a specific spot. Click **Select** to select a spot. |
| **Player** | Select one of the following options: - **For all players**: creates a report for all players. - **For one player**: creates a report for a specific player. Click **Select** to select a player. |
| **CSV delimiter** | Select one of the following delimiters for the CSV file: - **;** - **,** |
| **Report type** | Select one of the following report types: - **Daily summary**: creates a summary of spot playbacks by day. - **For every playback**: creates a detailed report of each spot playback including playback time. Please note that this function must be activated. |
4. Click **Load spot statistics** to create the CSV file.

## Work with the spot statistics report

You can get the following information from the spot statistics CSV report:

| **Player** | Name of the player. |
| --- | --- |
| **Spot** | Name of the spot. |
| **Date (**UTC**)** | Date when the spot was played. |
| **Screen** | Screen that displayed the spot. |
| **Count** | Number of times the spot was played. |
| **Box ID** | Box-ID of the player. |
| **Customer Code** | ID of the player. |

UTC stands for Coordinated Universal Time, which is a time standard that serves as the basis for timekeeping worldwide, allowing for the synchronization of time across different regions.

Every player has a unique Box-ID that identifies it, for example, during the initialization. You can check the Box-ID when you access the player in IXM.
