There is a discrepancy between the number of events reported under a particular event action vs the number of events reported under an event name. In the attached screenshots, this translates to different numbers for the url of a file downloaded vs. the filename of the file downloaded.

I've attached two screenshots that show how the numbers reported under event name / Ereignisname (secondary dimension event action is open) and event action / Ereignisaktionen are slightly different. In this case the discrepancy is only 1, but over longer time frames I see larger differences.

Hi @LauraHornbake
I believe this issue is rather due to the way the data is tracked, maybe one of the event tracking requests didn't have 10_Meldewesen.xls set correctly... If you experience this bug often, please check your data tagging. if you think there is an issue in piwik feel free to leave another comment
