Set up the Campaign Item Record type
To support the customizing of the Media Buying Pilot and make sure you can include this in your own custom logic and validations, we added a new Campaign Item Record Type, which you are free to use.
...
The record type is activated by default and ready to use. There is also a page layout included, which highlights the most important fields and related list for the Buying Pilot.
In order to make sure your Campaign Items will automatically receive the right record type, we included the template to a custom flow. The flow will set all Campaign Items, which are belonging to certain Ad Specs as Buying Activity items, for this we use a new field, more information can also be found here: 4.19.5.3 How to prepare Ad Specs for your Reselling, Reach Extension or Service Campaign Items?
