There is a possibility to Measure AdBuilder and AdBriefing usage to review and restrict it.
Configuration
Correspondent configuration block appears in AdBuilder Module Settings
where:
"Enable Usage Counter" enables restriction for save, print and download actions;
"Default Usage Counter Limit" defines default usage count;
"Reset Usage Counter" defines a period in which the counter should reset (Daily, Weekly, Monthly).
Note!
"Reset Usage Counter" = Month, means that the limit will be reset on the first day of the next month
"Reset Usage Counter" = Week, means that the limit will be reset on the first day of the next week
No matter what value was selected as default usage limit, it also can be configured for each template separately.
Usage Metrics
AdBuilder and AdBriefing usage metrics are recorded to the following location: Site Configuration > Metrics > AdBuilder Templates.
Page contains following usage metrics:
Basic Metrics (Site, Module containing the template, Name of the template, Number of times the template has been used, When the template was last used);
Download Metrics (Name of the template, Number of times the template has been downloaded, When the template was downloaded, Who has downloaded the template);
Print Metrics (Name of the template, Number of times the template has been printed, When the template was printed, Who has printed the template);
Save Metrics (Name of the template, Number of times the template has been Saved, When the template was saved, Who has saved the template);
Generated by Creative Automation Metrics (Name of the template, Number of times the template has been generated, When the template was generated, Who has generated the template).
Metrics can be filtered by Action Type and Date Period.
Note! Actions triggered in AdBuilder and AdBriefing windows are logged into Adbuilder Template Metrics even when Usage Counter is disabled in AdBuilder settings.
Restrict Usage
When usage counter is enabled, save, print and download actions are restricted based on incremental count across all actions, per user. Once user reaches configured action usage limit, "Save", "Print", "Create" and "Download" buttons become disabled.
It is possible to track how many actions were already made using "Usage Count" that is location on the actions bar in Adbuilder and AdBriefing.
