Challenge

Can you hold inventory for your Broadsign Campaigns you’ve planned in ADvendio and later also set them live?

Solution

You can use our feature called Update Ad-Status in AdServer to resolve this challenge and to get more flexibility in managing your Broadsign Campaigns within ADvendio.

You'll find three options to choose from:

• Active: It means it has been submitted and is currently running. This option lets you book your ads in Broadsign. When a Proposal Item is marked as "Active," it means it is booked in Broadsign, and the assigned Screens are reserved and actively running.

• Paused: It has been saved but is temporarily on hold. If you need to make changes or take a break, you can return your booking in the Broadsign as a draft. If a Proposal Item is "Paused," it temporarily removes the reserved status and brings it back to its previous draft state.

• Reserved: It is on hold and not currently active. This option allows you to hold bookings in Broadsign, securing inventory for your campaigns in ADvendio. When a Proposal Item is "Reserved," it has the status of being on hold, and the assigned Screens are reserved and blocked for other bookings.

There is a predefined flow of actions in the system that you can take with your items:

For a Paused item, you have the option to set it as active or reserved.

For a Reserved item, you can choose to set it as paused or active.
