Optional bookings

With the selection of a product in the quote, you have the option to make reservations on available advertising spaces via the product property for availability check.

Changes in version 22.100: The "Optional" column in the product property for fixed publication date bookings has been removed. Optional bookings have no influence on availability and only informative character in the respective quote.

Booking for a fixed publication date

Normally, positions on issues with fixed publication date cannot be overbooked, the entry is already prevented in the editor and at the latest when creating the dispo books.

Changes in version 22.100: Via the checkbox "Allow overbooking" f42_dispo__AllowOverbooking__c at the position you can allow overbooking also for fixed publication date positions. The availability f42_dispo__countAvailable__c then slips into negative.

Action required: if necessary, activate the checkbox at the respective position option (f42_dispo__AdPosCatalog__c). I.e. you can define the overbooking per position and issue individually.

Ad disposition

International use: Multiple foreign currencies on the dispo book

An dispo book entry includes all relevant information about a reservation or booking - from the opportunity, the associated quote with relevant sales information to the reserved position and the settlement status in the aftersales process.

Changes in version 22.100: If several foreign currencies are activated in the Salesforce instance, the amounts on the dispo book are also issued in the opportunity currency.

Affinities

Affinities allow you to tag any objects in your Salesforce instance. By using them across objects, affinities can improve the 360° view in your CRM.

Changes in version 22.100: You have the possibility to filter affinities on specific objects, and thus, for example, to have different affinities for publications than for contacts and campaigns to choose from.

Action required: The visibility is controlled by the multiple selection list "Affinity Filter" f42_dispo__AffinityFilter__c. If necessary, add this to your affinity page layout first.

When updating an existing MediaVelox installation to version 22.100, make sure to apply the f42_dispo__AffinityFilter__c picklist values to your existing affinities.

If you have already created your own affinity objects, e.g. affinities for leads or outputs, please first add the API names of these objects as selection list values for the filter.

In the list view for affinities you will find a button "Update Affinities Filters" (UpdateAffinitiesFilters). By pressing the button, all records in your instance that do not have an entry in the Affinities Filter field will be assigned all the values available for selection. This is a one-time action. Afterwards you can remove the button from your list view.

Further optimizations and bug fixes

The component error when posting time-dependent products with active debug mode no longer occurs.

In the product detail dialog, reservations of time-dependent placements are again directly reflected in the quantity column and thus in the price.

The error when removing affinities on an unconfirmed selection has been fixed.
