What does this view show me?
In Accounts > Paid Media Plans you see, for each account, its current plan, how much it has spent, and its pacing (high, low, or OK). You can look at it organized in different ways with the By Account, By Status, and Summary tabs.
The Summary concentrates the alerts that matter: accounts spending off pace, expired plans not archived, outdated costs, unlinked campaigns, or accounts with no active plan.
Plans by platform or by account show up here with their mode chip, and with the same budget, spend, and pacing as any other plan. The "unlinked campaigns" alert doesn't apply to them: those plans have no campaigns to link, and a row you keep by hand is a legitimate setup, not an error. See Plan modes: by campaign, by platform, or by account.
How do I act from here?
- Detect the account with a problem in the list and go into its plan to resolve it.
- For repetitive tasks across several accounts, use bulk actions like Sync costs or archiving expired plans all at once.
For the detail of how a plan and its pacing work inside an account, see Build your media plan and budget with the Planner and Control the pacing: whether you're spending at the right pace.
Can the view keep itself up to date?
Yes, from the Settings tab of this view. Auto-Sync Costs brings in the actual spend of active plans on the schedule you choose (daily or weekly, with the hour and time zone), and Auto-Archive Expired Plans archives the ones that have passed their end date after the delay you set. Recent runs shows what happened in each one, plan by plan, so you can check what was synced and what failed. Only owners and admins can change these settings; everyone else sees them read-only.
