Mappings
Purpose

Create Mappings
Purpose

A line item has a placement code “ABC” but no size. Through creative mappings this placement code can be converted into a specific size, ie. “728 x 90 px”.
In this case, a mapping is set up to parse all lineitems for placement code = “abc”. When found, the value 728 x 90 is passed to the size (dimension) field.

We want to limit members of the “ABC group” to only see ads that are booked for the publication named “The Courier”. To do so, a filter should be created that filters on publication=”Courier”.
This filter should then be selected as the Ad material access filter for the “ABC group” which means that the group members only see the ads found by the filter.
