To assess the revenue of your third-party publishers based upon Delivery Data from your AdServer you need to connect the condition to all applicable AdServer IDs. Then only the delivered quantities are counted. The system also automatically calculates the right share on the invoiced amount in case of for example over delivery. You have two options.

  1. Do this manually or

  2. use the "Assign AdServer" - IDs Button. 

Note

Attention:

Once an AdServer ID is connected to a Publisher Payout Condition, only Campaign Items with Delivery Data from these defined AdServer IDs will be counted towards the condition.

You can configure your condition to either

  • count delivered quantities (from the AdServer) or 

  • use the invoiced quantities and amounts. 

It's however not possible to track delivery based digital items and invoice based print items in the same condition. Please use two separate conditions for this case.
