Perform Billing Actualization

Campaign Manager 360 Planning generates billing actualization (BA) templates that reduce the amount of manual entry required to measure ad delivery against contracted amounts. To generate a template:

  1. Click the Order icon in the navigation bar.
  2. Click the name of an order on the Order summary page. (Do not click the name of a line item under an order.)
  3. In the order pane that appears, scroll down to Order documents. Click the download button next to the order for which you want to create a BA report.
  4. Click Billing actualization template… Select a date range from the dialog that pops up and click Download.
  5. A .csv file containing all parent (top-level) placements in the order document will download. The default name will take this form:

    Billing Actualization document for - <order-document-name> - (<yyyymmdd--yyyymmdd>).csv

    For example:

    Billing Actualization document for -Insertion order- (20140901-20140930).csv

  6. After downloading, you can import the .csv file into a spreadsheet for editing, filling in your payables in the last three columns.

Each flight will have its own line in the file showing the planned values and actual values, as follows:

1 For flat rate types, this is calculated as follows:

FLAT_RATE_IMPRESSIONS:

planned cost / planned unit * 1000

FLAT_RATE_CLICKS:

planned cost / planned unit

2 For non-flat rate types, this is calculated as follows:

CPC/CPA: planned units * planned rate

CPM/vCPM - Active View: planned units * planned rate / 1000

3 Based on the cost structure, this could be:

CPM: actual units * actual rate / 1000

vCPM - Active View: actual viewable units * actual rate / 1000

CPC: actual units * actual rate

CPA: actual units * actual rate

FLAT_RATE_IMPRESSIONS: planned cost

FLAT_RATE_CLICKS: planned cost
