Individual Image Sales

[George Munday]

Does anyone know if it's possible to check through the dashboard if an individual image has been sold, at any time, by Alamy. I've one or two oldish pix appearing on websites and before chasing the user, it would be helpful to exclude Alamy as a scource.

 

Many thanks.

If you go to Sales History on the Dashboard, you can select 'Time Period'  = All. You can then scroll through all the sales you've ever made. I don't know of any other way to get the info you need.

Best bet is:

Click on the Download Sales Report on your dashboard

Set the date range to whatever dates you want to cover.  It should be possible to cover all your image sales dating back to when you first joined Alamy.

Select Date of Invoice from the drop down

Leave all the reporting fields ticked

Click Go

Click download

 

You'll end with a CSV file that can be opened in any spreadsheet program.  From there it's easy to do a search (Ctrl=F for most Windows programs) or set up a filter.  I usually use the Alamy Image ID as my search parameter as it's easy to copy and paste from your image portfolio.

 

Hope this helps.

Thanks guys, something to work with. I'll try in the morning, see what happens and report back.

Thanks Kay and John for taking the time out to answer my query. 

 

So just in case anyone else has a similar problem - just follow their instructions. I set the date to 2007 - when I started with Alamy - then pasted  the downloaded CSV file into Google Sheets. From there it was easy to search on the code of the specific pics.

 

Oh that life was always so simple!
