How can the data be imported into ADvendio?

To ensure the newest information are present in ADvendio and to keep the effort down, there are multiple ways to directly import performance data for Buying Items.

To schedule a report on monthly or daily data, please go to the delivery report center.

Click plan delivery report and select either the lifetime, monthly or daily report to plan the import of your buying data.

For more information on how the import planning works in general, please see also the following page: 5.3.2 How to schedule and manage Delivery Reports / Programmatic Data Imports from AdServers, SSPs, DSPs (new interface)

What happens once the delivery and performance data is imported?

After the report is scheduled and finished, the configured recipients will receive an email with more details about the results. It contains general information about the org and involved user, as well as how many ADvendio records were updated.

Also, please make sure the tab for the Delivery Report Center is visible and accessible. We generally recommend that a user with System Administrator permissions plans and manages the delivery imports to ensure there are no problems with missing access rights.
