Info

Keep in mind, that Freewheel only supports limited pricing information. If you are planning to use a CPCv pricing, ADvendio will map this to CPM in Freewheel. The actual CPM set in Freewheel can influence the priority and performance of an item.

If you want to set a custom CPM, which differs to the CPCv value, we recommend to use the AdServer Price Field on the Campaign Item. You can find out more about the configuration here: 7.3.1.2 Submit Prices to the AdServer

Check Availability for Custom Event Targets

For custom event targets it’s also possible to check availability in the AdServer. Please be aware that Freewheel only returns available Impressions, but the Goals of the Item (as in the Quantity) can actually point towards a different event.

...

In that case this would mean, your desired completed views are compared to Impressions, which can be much higher. If you want to use the availability flag, you could enter a number of Impressions, that needs to be at least reached in the field Guaranteed Impressions.
