4.2.4 Campaign Item Buttons and Functions
For a media campaign to be of any use, you have to add products/campaign items. These campaign items represent the products you offer and try to sell to your customer.
The Campaign Item Related List (VFP) or Lightning Component additionally lets you filter by
Don't show canceled items
Dont show optimized items
Otherwise, all buttons are the same. Your administrator has to 8.5 Setup the Custom Campaign Item Related List.
To work with campaign items ADvendio offers a number of build-in functions which are explained below. Described are the standard Salesforce and ADvendio buttons below.
(You might not see all mentioned buttons here as your administrator could have turned individual features off. Additionally, it is possible that your administrator has overwritten buttons and customized them to work perfectly for your business.)
1. Add Items
Clicking on the Add Items button will open the classic Media Search to allow you to 4.2.4.1 Add Items. With this feature, you can search your inventory database for the specified rate card either by keyword or by selecting specific search criteria.
For example, you are able to display all Ad Specs available on a certain site or pick from all available "leaderboards". Watch this video here to see how it works: Add Items to a Campaign.
Record Types
Depending on your Ad Type and Ad Spec selection the record type of the Campaign Item will be determined by the system when adding Campaign Items to your Media Campaign.
The following table shows which record types are offered and which Ad Types / Ad Specs result in their selection of them.
Campaign Item Record Type Name | Ad Spec Record Type Name | Ad Type Record Type Name |
---|---|---|
Online (Default) | Standard |

OoH | Standard | OoH |
Package Header | Package Header | - |
Standard | ||
Radio | Standard | Radio |
Service | Standard | Service |
TV | Standard | TV |
Buying | Buying (and Ad Price Billing Category is Budget) | irrelevant |

2. Edit Items
Open the line items in the view all window or just hit edit. This button will open all checked line items (or all if none is selected) in the 4.3.1 Media Configuration Functions and lets you edit the data of your line items. Alternatively, you can use the Salesforce Standard view by clicking on the Edit link in your line item.
3. Optimize Items

Alternatively, you can use the Salesforce Standard view by clicking on the Del link in your line item.
5. Sort Items
Open the line items in the view-all window. Then use this button to change the order of your campaign items by dragging and dropping them into the correct position:
The media config will also show the items in your chosen order.
This sort of order is also reflected in your PDFs - offer, order, and invoice documents.
6. Show Recommendations
Open the line items in the view-all window. If your administrator has configured this feature it works like any shopping site. It will show you other "related" products which you can sell to your customers depending on your existing choice. Read more about 4.2.4.3 Recommendations.
7. Check Availability
Open the line items in the view-all window. If you use this button you will get important information about the availability of your inventory: this works for digital as well as exclusive items. 4.4 Check Availability in ADvendio
8. Submit to Adserver
Open the line items in the view-all window. Clicking this button will upload your digital data to the linked AdTypes specified AdServer i.e. Google Ad Manager. Read more here 4.8 Book Order into Ad Server.
The time will be transferred to the AdServer according to the Time Zone which is set in your Campaign Item or your User Locale if the Campaign Item field is not set.
Equativ Time Zone
Please note that we will always transfer items within the following Time Zone for Equativ AdServer: UTC+1.
9. Update Ad-Status in AdServer
You can use this to update the status of your line items in the AdServer.
You can for example use this to set your items to active or pause them from ADvendio. The field 'Adserver Status' on the Campaign Item is used to select which status will be set.
(This feature has to be configured by your administrator 7.3.13 Configure "Update Ad-Status in AdServer", otherwise it is not working.)
10. Creative Upload
Information
Creative Targeting is currently not supported (starting with ADvendio Summer 2018 Releases and up). If you are interested in using this feature please contact your ADvendio consultant or write to support@advendio.com.
Open the line items in the view-all window. Read more about how to upload your creatives in this section /wiki/spaces/SO/pages/622719.
11. Get Delivered Clicks/Impressions
Open the line items in the view-all window. Then check the items you like to get delivered click and impressions and click the button. It now updates the delivery data only for these checked campaign items and writes the values into the fields.
Version 2.101 and up
The following fields will be updated:
Get Delivered Clicks/Impressions (FreeWheel)
When you use the button Get Delivered Clicks/Impressions for your FreeWheel items please note that the imported data may differ from the current data.
As FreeWheel does not have a reporting API we are using a report from FreeWheel (Type: Total).
Depending on the last update date and time of this report in FreeWheel the clicks and impressions will be imported into ADvendio.
If the report Total is not set up yet please inform your Admin to follow the steps described here: 7.3.6.5 How to configure Delivery Data Imports from FreeWheel to ADvendio.
Buttons on your Campaign Items Detail Page
The buttons you can find on the detail page of your campaign item are slightly different:
Edit allows you to edit the Line item on the standard Salesforce page instead of using the Media Configuration.
Clone copies your item and is also the standard Salesforce function.
Manual Delivery Data: You can overwrite the Adserver data, read more here 4.13 Manual Delivery Data.
Opens the Contending Ads report for your item.
Runs the Exclusivity Check for the item.
Delete, removes your line item. We recommend using the Media Configuration to do that.
VAST Completion Report - opens the Standard ADvendio VAST Completion Report for this line item (Video only).
Delivery Data Daily Report - opens the Standard ADvendio Delivery Data Daily Report, if available for this line item.
