Hello, and Welcome to AdJuggler 6! We have put this guide together to help explain some of the new features we have added, and also to explain how the new interface works. We hope this guide will help familiarize you with AdJuggler 6, but as always, our support team is here to answer any questions for you.

AdJuggler 6 represents one of the biggest releases in the history of AdJuggler, and is also the culmination of collected customer feedback, suggestions and requests over the past few years. As you will see, AdJuggler has seen some dramatic changes, but they have all been done to make AdJuggler even easier and more efficient to use than ever.

AdJuggler Home Screen and Dashboard

One of the first things you'll notice when logging into AdJuggler 6 is the Dashboard, part of the new "Home" view in AdJuggler. The Dashboard presents a customizable set of graphs and charts that you can use to visualize your AdJuggler data. All of these charts are customizable, and you can quickly save a customized view by clicking "Set As Default" so it will be used each time you return to the Dashboard view.

To the left you'll also see the new AdJuggler menu design. The Home screen now provides direct access to Zone settings as well as system level Reports. It is worth noting that the Advertisers and Publishers are now accessed using the tabs at the top of the screen, rather than via the left-hand menu.

Customize Dashboard Settings

Each user can have their own customized Dashboard settings. If you edit your main Primary Administrator account and go to the Dashboard section, you will see an example of how you can change all of these options. As mentioned above, you can also set any current view in the Dashboard to the Default view as well.

This shot also demonstrates more of the new "look" of AdJuggler 6, with a new default color scheme and rounded tabs.

The Advertisers Menu

Clicking on the "Advertisers" tab will show you one of the other changes in AdJuggler's UI. Rather than opening up a list of Advertisers in the main menu, you will now see a heirarchical list of advertisers displayed in the left-hand menu. This list is fully navigable and searchable, but also introduces some powerful new capabilities to managing your advertisers (the same concepts also apply to publishers).

Viewing Campaigns and Ads

An advertiser can be uncollapsed by clicking the little arrow to the left of it. By doing so, you will see that you can view a list of Campaigns and Ads belonging to that advertiser, all without ever having to actually login to it. Similarly, when you use the search box here to perform a search, you will instantly see Advertisers that match, as well as specific Campaigns and Ads that match.

Adding and Editing Campaigns and Ads

One of the benefits of the new AdJuggler 6 menu is that you can easily add new ads and campaigns right from the menu. When you hold your mouse over a Campaigns or Ads folder for an advertiser, you will see an "Add New" button appear. Clicking on it allows you to directly add a new campaign or ad.

You can also edit any campaign or ad from this point without having to specifically manage an advertiser.

To Manage an Advertiser

Perhaps one of the biggest UI changes in AdJuggler 6 is doing away with the concept of "logging in as" an advertiser or publisher. Now you can easily manage any advertiser or publisher without having to change views from the administrator view.

We made this change because, in working with numerous AdJuggler customers, we found that the concept of having to login and logout of advertisers and publishers was sometimes confusing or time-consuming.

This new method makes it much easier to manage advertisers and publishers in the same way without requiring so many steps.

When you hold your mouse over an advertiser or publisher, a "Manage" button will appear to the right of their name. Clicking this button will allow you to manage the settings of that advertiser or publisher.

Managing an Advertiser

Managing an advertiser provides you with access to all of their ads, campaigns and settings as well as their reports.

You do not need to "log out" of an advertiser once you are done managing it. You can simply click on the Explorer menu or the Show All button (the three stacked documents) to view all of the Advertisers again, or navigate elsewhere in the AdJuggler interface.

Viewing And Adding Campaigns

Clicking on "Campaigns" will present a list of all campaigns, including their realtime stats, current status and start and end dates. From here you can edit individual campaigns.

If you hold the mouse over the Campaigns or Ads menu items, you will see an "Add New" button appear that will allow you to add a new campaign or ad.

Viewing Recently Managed Advertisers

One of the other benefits of the new menu function is that AdJuggler will remember the 5 most recently managed advertisers or publishers. In this screenshot, you can see the 5 most recently accessed advertisers at the bottom of the menu. Clicking on one will allow you to instantly manage that advertiser.

Clicking the "Explorer" menu item or the Show All button (the stack of three documents in the upper right hand corner) will show you the list of all advertisers or publishers again.

New Campaign Targeting Section

This shot of the Campaign form provides another look at the refined form interface design in AdJuggler 6.

More specifically, it also shows the new Campaign Targeting tab and subtabs. All of the targeting options are now present as subtabs, making them easier to find, and providing a cleaner and less overwhelming campaign form.

Viewing Publishers

Just as with advertisers, clicking on the Publishers tab presents a list of publishers. You can view and edit Ad Spots without having to actually manage a publisher.

Managing Publishers

Again, as with advertisers, managing a publisher allows you to view all settings associated with them, as well as generate their ad tags and run their reports.

You can add new Ad Spots, Publisher-level Default Ads and Review Ads while managing a publisher as well.

Viewing All Advertisers or Publishers

In order to view the list of all advertisers or publishers, simply click the "Browse All" button, circled in red in this shot. This will allow you to view all advertisers or publishers, including their current status and realtime stats.

Generating an Inventory Report

Another new feature in AdJuggler 6 is the brand new Inventory Report, available in the administrator's Home Screen. The report itself is simple to setup, simply requiring you to select the start and end dates you want to cover for the Inventory report.

Viewing the Inventory Report

The inventory report will provide you with a list of campaigns, registered/project impressions, the shortfall number and the on track percentage. The color coding key shows you how to recognize campaigns that are expected to serve everything they are supposed to in the specified time period, as well as those campaigns that will not.

Enabling/Disabling Features

New to AdJuggler 6 is the ability for the administrator to define which features will and won't be available in the system. This can be done from the new "Features" tab in the "Zone Settings" form, available from the Home screen.

This allows you to create a more streamlined AdJuggler experience if you desire; if you don't want geo-targeting or post-clicking features to be available, for example, all you have to do is uncheck them from the "Features" section, and all related menu and form items for these features will disappear.

Defining Admin Access Rights

AdJuggler 6 introduces more advanced options for customizing administrators. Previously it was only possible to create an Administrator who either had total access to everything or read-only access to everything.

With the new expanded Access Rights section for administrator accounts, you can now create an Administrator who has read-only access to Advertisers and full read/modify access for Publishers. Or you can create an Administrator with no access to Advertisers at all, and just read-only access to Publishers. Or an Administrator without Advertiser or Publisher access, only able to read and modify reports.

Giving Admins Access to Specific Advertisers and Publishers

Something else you will see when creating or editing an Administrator account is the presence of two new tabs; Advertisers and Publishers.

By default, an Administrator has access to all advertisers and publishers in the system. However, by clicking on the Advertisers or Publishers tab for an administrator, and then clicking on "Select Advertisers to Manage" or "Select Publishers to Manage", you will see the following screen.

This allows you to select specific advertisers or publishers an administrator can actually access. One of the most requested features in AdJuggler was the ability to create specialized accounts which would only have access to specific accounts, not the entire system. With this new functionality, this is now a possibility. So, for example, if you have an account rep who is responsible for just a specific group of advertisers, you can now create a special admin account for them with just advertiser access, and specifically access to just the specific advertisers they are responsible for.
