Create Publication Date

This will open an empty form on the right which you can fill with the respective data:

Create a new Publication Date by entering data into the following fields:

  1. Publication Number - mandatory, this is the publication number which usually reflects your issue number or other recognizable name for your publication: The wizard displays only the first 20 digits!

  2. Site - mandatory, here you choose your related site (magazine/journal/newspaper)

  3. Publication Date (if you have clicked on a box in the calendar all date fields have been pre-selected for you).

  4. All other dates are optional. 

  5. Hit save.

We have introduced Placement-based publication dates to enhance scheduling flexibility. A new handling option for an optional Placement lookup has been added. If a Publication Date has both a Site and a Placement assigned, the Placement will only have Publication Dates on the days where it is applied. If a Placement has no specific Publication Dates assigned, the dates will default to those from the Site record. Placements are now integrated into the Publication Date Wizard, allowing you to assign publication dates directly to Placements. This new functionality ensures precise and efficient management of your publication schedules.

Create Series of Dates

If you have selected this button the first fields will be the same with the following changes/additions:

  • Publication Number: Is generated therefore can not be manually edited.
