In your DoubleClick for Publishers account, click the Inventory tab, then click Ad units on the left-hand panel.
You can also use the search box to search for ad units.

If an ad unit contains ad units at the next inventory level, click it to see a list of them.

Click an ad unit. The following information is displayed:
-

Click the Line items tab to view line items that are forecasted to deliver to this ad unit in the next 30 days. In order for a line item to be displayed, it needs to satisfy the following conditions:
-
The line item must be reserving inventory (including paused with inventory reserved).
-
Forecasting must have sufficient historical data, ideally 28 days of it, to make its prediction. Learn more
-
Forecasting must predict delivery for the line item. For example, if one 100-weight sponsorship ad is booked to the ad unit during the next 30 days, no other line items are displayed because none can deliver.
-
This screen also displays remnant line items that fulfill the above requirements, unlike regular forecasts, which ignore remnant line items.
