Creating Money Columns

Money columns are a type of Custom Column that enable you to represent monetary values in your media plan that are not part of the Cost of a placement.  This data is often for informational or tracking purposes, or could be a calculation based on costs.

Columns created will be available to all users to add as default columns for Advertisers and Campaigns.

Other Columns to represent Date, Text, Numbers, and Picklists are also available.

Press the Add Money Column button

Enter the Name of the Money Column to easily identify what it will represent.

There are 2 options to choose from: Entered or Calculated

Entered

Entered indicates that data for this column will be entered as a literal value.  For example, if the column is Invoice Amount, you would need to be able to enter the actual invoice amount.  It would not be a calculated value.
