PRODUCT UPDATE | JULY 2009
On 7/14 we released some enhancements to our platforms
by Ian Rosenwach, Product Manager
User/Channel Management
The goal of this enhancement is to improve the user experience for Publisher who manage multiple channels (SIDs) and have multiple people (users) that manage those channels. Publishers will now be able to assign multiple users per Channel, and assign these users different rights. This means that one username could be assigned to multiple SID’s.
This change resulted in a few Advertiser interface chances. In general, the SID is now the standard identifier for a Publisher when you’re trying to run reports or pull publisher information. For example, there used to be the option to run a Sales & Activity report by username. That has been replaced by SID, since one username could be assigned to multiple SIDs. The Publisher more Info page will now also include all usernames associated with an account, with a Master User designated with an asterisk (*). Over time this change could result in more relevant contact information, since Publishers will have more flexibility in providing channel-specific contact details.
Adding Commission in Individual Item Report
The Individual Item Report provides performance data on the product level. We’ve heard from our clients that they would like to be able to conduct more in depth profitability analysis right down to the SKU level. With this release, we’ll be adding two columns – Adjusted Commission and Baseline Commission – to the Individual Item Report. You can access the report here.
New Extension for Joomla
Joomla is an open source Content Management System (CMS) that many web publishers use to build their sites. We’ve developed an extension that enables Joomla users to easily integrate LinkShare tracking links into their site without logging into the Publisher Dashboard. You can read more about Link Lookup for Joomla on our blog.
