After the original Ad Segments and Loops have been created and referenced by other data, there may come a time when users decide that they want to change they way they are selling their Digital Media. When this occurs, it may be necessary to create new Ad Segments and Loops and modify any existing Subcontracts (Digital). To ensure that these changes do not affect any Advertisers currently playing on the Players, it is recommended to follow these steps:-

1. Create new Ad Segments in ALL Segments.

2. Create a new Loop using the newly created Ad Segments in ALL Loops.

4. STOP THE AD MANAGER TO CONTENT MANAGER AUTO PUBLISHING SERVICE.
