# Why Is the "Last Adjustment" Column Needed?

## Answer

The **Last Adjustment** column shows how many days have passed since the last automatic adjustment was made by the BidX algorithm for a specific target. This is especially useful for checking if your automations are running reliably or if certain targets might need your attention. It helps you spot unusual activity faster and respond if needed.

## Accessing the Function

You can find the **Last Adjustment** column in the main menu under **Discover** on the **Targets** tab. This section includes various tabs such as **Marketplaces**, **Portfolios**, **Campaigns**, **Ad Groups**, **Targets**, **Negative Targets**, **Product Ads**, and **Search Terms**. The **Last Adjustment** (German: **Letzte Anpassung**, English: **Last Adj.**) column is only shown by default on the **Targets** tab.

## Limitations & Special Notes

- The **Last Adj.** column is only visible on the **Targets** tab. It only tracks automatic adjustments by the BidX algorithm. Manual changes do not affect this value.
- If there haven't been any algorithm events yet, the column will remain empty.
- Updates happen regularly, but there might occasionally be short delays.
- For more detailed adjustment information, check the **Adjustment Logs**.

## Tips & Best Practices

Use the **Last Adj.** column as an early warning system: specifically review targets where “> 60 days” is displayed. You can also combine this column with additional filters to quickly find older or high-cost targets. If you notice a target hasn't been updated for a long time and performance is weak, check whether your automation rules are set up correctly or need improvement.
