We've just rolled out a new way to create and manage Budget Alerts and Notifications (don't worry we have migrated all existing alerts) + plus we're added Budget Pacing Alerts. Also, the Dashboard has an updated look to include these new alerts.

You can create Custom Budget Alerts, with your own thresholds, and can create multiple alerts for various selections of accounts - essentially setting Spend and/or Pacing thresholds for all of your accounts in one Alert.

The Custom Budget Alert types are:

You can apply an alert to a static list of Ad Accounts, or you can include Ad Accounts dynamically, for example:

When selecting accounts dynamically, the Budgets included will update according to the criteria. For example, if the criteria is 'All Budgets tagged 'Sunita'' then any new Budgets that match this criterion will be included, conversely any that have the tag 'Sunita' removed will be removed.

We have migrated any existing Budget Alerts to this new format and you can view these here.

To accommodate the recent new Insights category and the new Budget Alerts, we have updated the UI of the Dashboard. These new sections will still click through as shortcuts to view the data.

We have also updated the colors of the Account Performance Scatter Plot, to make it easier to read.

Pro Tip: you can filter the Dashboard by Ad Account(s), so you can focus on one Ad Account and deep dive into it's performance through Adpulse.

You can now choose a default action for the 'Create Budget' Button, and even better, the button now works when you press enter (saves on those mousing around ;P)
