Description of the feature

Do you still question how and when you can edit your Media Campaign, and for example how you can change the runtime or adjust the targeting? The Optimization feature will help you ensure your order is adjusted and the version history is stored.

 

What are the advantages of Optimizer and why should you use it?

  • Helps to make adjustments to already ongoing campaigns (by changing campaign duration or amending a banner placement)

  • Useful in situations when changes on already booked orders are needed

  • Data changes performed are synchronized in real-time with your campaigns on the AdServer

  • It saves time, and money and reduces manual steps to perform when the order has been activated

  • Change history will be stored (to be compliant for audit purposes)

  • Campaign items can be canceled, added, and edited within one feature

  • Invoices will be adjusted

  • You can enable/disable approvals for your optimized versions

Optimizer is a powerful tool to edit your media campaigns. Please follow internal instructions to understand when Optimizer should be used and when the media campaign can just be edited. Editing a media campaign with the “edit” button stores no change history and is also not possible if the media campaign is fully or partially invoiced, so the Optimization feature is a solution here.

 

Two Optimization types are available: Optimization and Amendment

  • Order optimization

    • Can not be used if the Media Campaign is partially or fully invoiced

    • Campaign item values are overwritten

    • Version history is saved

  • Order amendment

    • Invoices are adjusted taking into invoice cancellation type

    • Campaign items are cancelled and new ones created

Mostly it depends on the internal policy when and which optimization type to use as well as which invoice cancellation type to choose.

 

The following invoice cancellation types are available

  • Standard cancellation

    • Fully cancel the related invoices completely

    • Issues new correct invoices

  • Merge periods cancellation

    • Cancels only line items for changed Campaign Item out of all related invoices

    • Invoice items which related to other Campaign Items but the same invoices will not get cancelled

    • Issue one credit note for all changed Campaign Items in the current period

    • Create a new invoice for the changed Campaign Item per period

  • Merge all cancellation

    • Merge all changes for related Campaign items in the next outstanding PreInvoice

    • When there are no outstanding Preinvoices, create only 1 Preinvoice for all changes in the current period
