Challenge:

You manage your insertion orders and line items, which are running in an external system like an AdServer, from ADvendio. To set your positions live and have them delivering, you might need to first change the status of your Insertion Order or Campaign in the other system.



Solution: 

To transmit the status for your campaigns to the AdServer you can use the AdServer Status field in the Media Campaign object. Set the field to your desired status and with the next click on submit to adserver, the status will be transferred to the external system.


This will update the Insertion Order Stage (for Freewheel) or the Insertion Order Status (Xandr & Smart).


Info

Please make sure not to mix this up with the AdServer Status on the Campaign Item: 7.3.13 Configure "Update Ad-Status in AdServer" for Campaign.Items



Setup:

To use this feature you need to make sure you users have read and edit permissions to the following field on Media Campaign Object:

  • ADvendio__AdserverStatus__c

You might need to manually update the available picklist values for the field or, if you are using Media Campaign record types, make sure that the picklist values are assigned to the right record types.

These are the possible picklist values and for which systems they apply:

Info
In order to set an Insertion Order to the stage booked in Freewheel, you need to make sure that all Placements of that Insertion Order have the needed information. They need to have at least one Ad Unit and the Content Targeting needs to be set (Videos, Video Groups, Video Series, Sites, Site Sections and/or Site Groups).
