Augmented line items enhance the standard features of items by providing options to support more sophisticated users. Augmented Item can be configured in ADvendio by setting the [AdType] How to configure formats for your Xandr related Configure Ad Type Formats] for Xandr products to Augmented. All further configurations can be done similarly to regular Xandr Items. In general, we support the same targeting options for Augmented Items as for Standard and Guaranteed Line Items.
Here is a quick overview of the relevant Augmented Line Item settings we support:
Ad Type
Underspend catch up
Supply Strategy
Geography
Flight 1 (ADvendio currently only supports a single flight, per item. All relevant information like start/end date, budget, and pacing can be set from ADvendio)
Daily pacing allocation
Managed Inventory Targeting

Attention:Up to version 2.151.1, we only support the Budget Type Revenue, meaning the insertion order will receive a lifetime revenue budget and all augmented line items will use a revenue budget not an impression / clicks budget. We set the Budget on Insertion Order level to unlimited. Starting with 2.151.1, we support three budget type values (Media Campaign field): none (default: Revenue), Revenue, and Flexible. All these budget type options support Augmented Line Items. The only difference is that Flexible supports the combination of Augmented Line Items and Guaranteed Augmented Line Items in one single Media Campaign/Insertion Order.

To set up Geo Targeting criteria in ADvendio, you can use our geo-targeting feature in the Media Configuration. But, as this is required to be set, you might want to save your Sales Reps additional steps in setting up their Campaign Items, by predefining geotargeting on the product level. Good news: we got you covered!
ADvendio Feature | Documentation | Additional Comment |

Geo Targeting* for Augmented Line Items | - | *Mandatory option for the advertising format and must be selected, at least one Country / Region |
With the Ad Spec AdServer ID Assignment, you can decide for each of your Ad Specs, which geo-targeting will be submitted automatically to Xandr. These criteria can be either included or excluded and will be used for each Campaign Item created from that Ad Spec. You can still add additional Geo-Targeting to your item, but not remove the predefined geo-targeting.

Set up Goals and Pacing for Augmented Line Items? And how are flights configured?
For Augmented Line Items, ADvendio provides certain setting possibilities for goals and flights.
...
ADvendio always creates a single Flight for each Augmented Campaign Item, the start and end date of the flight being based on the Campaign Item's start and end date.
You are able to can set the overall Budget either to a specific Budget or as Unlimited.
Attention: Unlimited Budgets at the Augmented Line Item level are not compatible with Insertion Orders that use Budget Type Flexible since it requires an unlimited budget at the IO level as well.
If you use a specific Budget, the amount will be determined by either the Campaign Item Quantity or Amount Net/Net field.
You can decide whether to use a pacing percentage or a daily budget. Those settings are controlled by the Secondary Goal Type and Secondary Goal Budget/Percent fields.
Underspend catch up is an option that is assigned by default when configuring an AdType for the Xandr record type → and the AdType picklist option “Augmented (ALI)” is selected

This configuration will use the Revenue Goal settings in Xandr, to ensure your Xandr Item will deliver only the determined number of clicks. In order to make sure everything works, there are a few settings in ADvendio, you need to keep in mind.
Campaign Item Field | Expected Value | Additional Comment |
|---|---|---|
Quantity | The number of clicks you target to reach | see below how this is reflected in Xandr |
Billing Category | CPC | This will be the Revenue Type in Xandr |
Sales Price | The price per click you want to sell | This will be the Revenue Value in Xandr |
Budget Type | Revenue or empty | If you do not set a value in the Budget Type field, we use Revenue as default setting for Augmented Line Items. Setting this field to Impressions, will result in an impression goal at Xandr, where a CPC configuration is not possible. |
Total Impressions | Please do not set! | In this configuration, using the ADvendio Total Impressions fields would overwrite your click goal set via the quantity. If you want to track a target number of Impressions you could use the ADvendio Guaranteed AI field. Please Note: this setting will not influence the item configuration in Xandr. |
In order to set up a click goal, ADvendio will do some calculations based on your Campaign Item fields. We will take Sales Price * Quantity in order to define the flight Budget in Xandr. The configuration means in our example: I want to reach 5000 clicks, with a CPC of 0.50€, so we will set the budget to 2,500.00€. After 5000 clicks have been reached, Xandr will see that this budget is reached and will stop delivery of this Item:
