Special Notes About Traffic

  • Please login every week. Logging in tells our software that you have initiated the processing of traffic orders. If you miss a week or two, please email me. Through our software I can easily schedule make-goods that will appear on traffic orders over the next several weeks. In other words, we'll handle it on our end.
  • It is important to use your personal login. The affidavit you are processing will display your name as the actual person attesting to the accuracy of when the spots ran. If you use another login for someone who no longer works for the station, our clients will be receiving affidavits from that person's login. If we do not know about this change in personnel, we look bad and run the risk of clients questioning our affidavit process.
  • Most orders change weekly. Do not assume the traffic orders are the same every week.
  • Multiple station clusters with different formats may have different schedules for each station.
  • Affidavits---Based on the pledge times you agreed to run the spots, the list of spots you should have run for that week will be displayed as one list--- The boxes should be pre-checked for your convenience.
  • Didn't run every spot you pledged in a week? When processing affidavits---If you uncheck a box because you did not run a spot, (or spots) the affidavit will not process. Please email me and let me know which spot you missed, and I'll reply with simple instructions.
  • Please try to process affidavits weekly, as we have new clients and agencies who are scheduling buys that will require weekly affidavits.
