Creating and applying multiple line item templates

Ad Manager supports setting up and applying multiple line item templates per network. This feature allows publishers to pre-fill multiple line items that can be used by the entire network, and improves the overall time traffickers spend creating a line item. Publishers are able to:

• Create and store multiple line item templates per network
• Pre-fill a new line item using one of many line item templates for different formats and channels

Using default templates

It’s good to be familiar with how default templates are used before creating and applying multiple line item templates. Some important things to consider are:

• An admin can set or unset a default template from the template list page.
• You can set a maximum of one default template per network.
• If a default template exists, it will be applied automatically to the line item creation form.
