If you are creating a placement that is handled entirely (100%) as a discount-in-kind, we recommend the following procedure to ensure all costs and fees are calculated correctly.
As a general rule, the discount-in-kind can be displayed as a percentage, monetary value, or volume value. The volume itself is defined by the billing unit. For example, if "Impressions" is selected there, an "I" will be displayed for the volume.
Proceed as follows when creating the 100% placement:
- Set the offered volume of the placement to 0.
- Instead, enter the corresponding value (the volume) completely in the discount-in-kind volume field.
What happens in the background: In the monitor (within the planning line form), the costs for this placement are correctly shown as €0.00. The fee (provided a discount-in-kind fee is set up on the category) and the technical components are selected in the media plan and also calculated there.
