What Should I Do If My Tracking Settings Keep Changing Automatically?

Short Answer: Ensure that your automatic recommendations are not enabled. If they are selected, your tracking settings can change automatically after they pass through the approval process.

Full Explanation

When your tracking settings keep changing without your intervention, a key cause could be that the automatic recommendations feature is turned on. This feature allows the system to suggest changes and apply them once they have gone through an approval stage. If automatic recommendations are enabled, approved changes will update your settings automatically, leading to unexpected changes.

Step-by-Step Breakdown

Check your tracking settings to identify whether automatic recommendations are enabled.
If they are enabled (ticked off), understand that this means the system can make changes on your behalf after recommendations are approved.
To prevent your settings from changing automatically, make sure to untick or disable these automatic recommendations.
After disabling, monitor your tracking settings to confirm they remain stable and no longer update without your input.

Real Examples

Imagine you set specific preferences for your tracking metrics, but later notice changes applied without your direct action. This often happens when automatic recommendations are active, and the system has approved and implemented suggested adjustments, which overrides your original setup.

Common Mistakes

Assuming changes are manual without checking the status of automatic recommendation approvals.
Overlooking the approval process that triggers these automatic adjustments.
