With Version 2.158 accounting records will have the possibility to distribute Campaign items that do not have delivery data. With this enhancement, the logic of how distribution and accrual records are created will be changed. Please see the table below for more details.

Important information to consider

  • Accounting Distribution Quantity Type* on the Ad Spec level gives the logical information on how the Campaign item should be calculated, for example, if the quantity is 1 but the revenue schedule has 10,000 delivered AIs, the logic needs to know if this should be calculated by impressions, clicks, video impressions etc. When this is not filled in for the “*Other ones, Fixed Price, CPD” billing categories there will be an error in distribution record creation and no record will be created. This quantity type error will never be a problem for CPM because the Billing Category itself already defined the quantity type, e.g for CPM it would be impressions. This field will be ignored for the Budget billing category.

  • When AdSpec has to be accounted for (distribution, deferral, accrual records) linearly and delivery data records should be ignored, the user can enable AdSpec for “Linear Accounting Calculation". This means that when this checkbox is enabled, Accounting Records processes will ignore the delivered quantity from a connection.

⚠️ Please note that if the Campaign item is invoiced based on delivery data and this checkbox is enabled, your invoice will be generated on the actual quantity however distributed linearly.

  • For Enhanced delivery data Sites and Video Groups, the secondary connection ID has to be present in the Enhanced delivery data record otherwise Distribution records will not be saved and show an error message.
