Campaign Performance report contains Universal App campaign stats, but Account Performance report does not

[j.e.frank]

Using v201603.  We have an account running 7 campaigns.  One of them is a Universal App campaign.  If I run an Account Performance report using the API, I get the account spend minus the spend for that campaign.  That kind of makes sense since these campaigns are supposed to be invisible to the API.  However, if I run a Campaign Performance report for the account, the Universal App campaign shows up along with the other campaigns.  I would expect it to show up in neither, or in both.  We do various "discrepancy checks" on our performance data and this inconsistency throws them off.

Hello,

Currently, universal app campaign data is only available in the Campaign Performance Report. As a workaround to make your reports consistent, you can exclude UA campaigns to appear in your Campaign Performance Report by adding the predicate AdvertisingChannelType != MULTI_CHANNEL or AdvertisingChannelSubType != UNIVERSAL_APP_CAMPAIGN.

Please check our blog regarding these campaign stats being available in other report types.
