Script 1531: Auto Pause & Re Enable Based On Strategy Target

Purpose

The Python script automates the pausing and re-enabling of advertising campaigns based on their monthly budget targets.

To Elaborate

The script is designed to manage advertising campaigns by automatically pausing them when their month-to-date (MTD) spending approaches or exceeds their allocated monthly budget, as defined in their strategy. It also re-enables campaigns when their spending falls below the budget threshold. The script uses a safety margin to account for system lags and non-linear spending patterns throughout the day. It processes campaign data, identifies those that have exceeded or are under their budget, and updates their status accordingly. This ensures that campaigns do not overspend while allowing them to resume if they are within budget limits, optimizing budget allocation and campaign performance.

Walking Through the Code

Configuration and Setup
- The script begins by defining a configurable parameter, BUDGET_CAP_SAFETY_MARGIN, which determines how close the MTD spend can get to the monthly budget before pausing.
- It checks if the script is running on a server or locally, loading necessary data from a pickle file if running locally.
Data Preparation
- The script processes the input data, removing duplicate campaigns and aggregating their costs.
- It ensures data types are consistent, converting budget columns to numeric and date columns to date types, and fills missing values with blanks.
Budget Analysis and Campaign Status Update
- The script calculates the MTD spend for each budget group and identifies campaigns that have exceeded their budget, marking them for pausing.
- It also identifies campaigns that can be resumed if their spending is below the budget threshold and they have a pause date.
Traffic Management
- The script determines which campaigns should be paused or resumed based on their current status and recommended status, updating their status and pause date accordingly.
Output Preparation
- It cleans up any orphaned pause dates and selects only the changed rows for output.
- The output data is prepared with updated campaign statuses, ready for further processing or export.
