3. Buying Item

After creating a Buying Order, you can configure individual Buying Items, which will represent The Trade Desk. These help to control your programmatic media spend, by setting up details like the bidding strategy, goals, and automatic optimizations. You can create as many items as you like for your Buying Order.

⚠️ Limitation

Each Buying Item is AdGroup + Flight.
Multiple Flights can not overlap; this means right now you can create either multiple Buying Items into one Buying Order, with exactly the same time frame OR you need to make sure the dates of all Buying Items are not overlapping
