7.3.7.6 Breaking Change: Freewheel Reporting for delivered Impressions

Challenge:

As described in the 6.35 Release Brief by Freewheel, there is a critical change in regard of the metrics used for Impressions in reporting.

What in the past was "Net Delivered Impressions" is now "Net Counted Ads". In order to react to this change, you will need to install a patch from ADvendio and change the ADvendio related reports within Freewheel. To make sure your Delivery Reports are still containing the correct number please follow these steps.

 

Solution:

1.) Make sure to install at least ADvendio Spring (2.125.x) or ADvendio Spring (2.126.1) or the following release version 2.127. So that the ADvendio Gateway can ask Freewheel for the correct metrics

2.) Make sure to enhance your reports within Freewheel and add the new metric “Net Counted Ads”

The old metric “Net Delivered Impressions” can be removed. Please make sure that all reports are saved and scheduled to be pushed to the Freewheel ftp, so that ADvendio can access them. Attention: It might takes some time until a new updated report is pushed to the Freewheel ftp. In most cases the following day, you should be able to receive the correct values in ADvendio.
