Existing Plans
4.2 Modifying a Plan
4.2.1 Plan Details
An existing plan can be edited by selecting the blue options (•••) menu on the plan and choosing Edit Plan.
The user may update the campaign name, date range, objectives, target market, and other plan details. An option is available to update schedules and schedule lines automatically by selecting the relevant checkbox.
If the plan date range changes and no bookings have been committed to NAV, the date range can also be updated on the schedules (plan view) and on the schedule lines (schedule view).
4.2.2 Plan Brand Management
4.2.2.1 User Setup
To allow a user to change a customer’s brand on a plan, the Allow Brand Change option must be enabled on the User Card within security setup.
4.2.2.2 Rules: Brand Changes and Plan Line Status
Brand changes are permitted when plan lines are in a Planned or Booked status. Brand changes are not allowed once plan lines are locked, such as when they have been Customer Invoiced or Vendor Invoiced.
4.2.2.3 Changing the Brand on a Plan with a Brand Already Specified
If a brand was assigned during plan creation and schedules already exist, open the plan’s blue options (•••) menu and select Change Brand.
A pop-up window will appear allowing the selection of a new brand and product (if applicable). Select Proceed to confirm.
Once completed, the plan and all associated schedules will adopt the new brand and the related brand coordination defined in NAV.
4.2.2.4 Changing the Brand on a Plan without a Brand Specified
If no brand was specified at plan creation and the brand was later applied at schedule level, open the schedule’s grey options (•••) menu and select Change Brand.
Select the required brand and product (if available), then select Proceed. The plan and schedules will update accordingly based on the NAV brand configuration.
Multiple brands may be assigned per medium type, resulting in a separate campaign number for each brand.
4.2.2.5 Changing the Brand When Copying a Plan
To change a brand when copying a plan, navigate to the plan list and select the grey options (•••) menu for the plan to be copied. Choose Copy Plan.
A pop-up window will appear where a new brand and product (if available) can be selected. Select Proceed to create the copied plan using the chosen brand.
4.2.2.6 Changing the Brand When Copying a Schedule
4.2.2.6.1 Brand Specified on Plan Creation
If a plan has a brand specified at creation, copied schedules will automatically inherit the plan’s current brand. From the plan view, open the blue options (•••) menu and select Copy Schedules.
Select the customer brand and associated plan, then choose Filter Schedules to display available schedule lines. Select the required schedule line(s) and choose Copy with Schedules.
The copied schedules will appear in the plan using the plan’s brand.
4.2.2.6.2 Brand Not Specified on Plan Creation
If no brand was specified when the plan was created, copied schedules will retain their original brand. Follow the same Copy Schedules process. The copied schedules will appear in the plan with their existing brand unchanged.
4.3 Deleting a Plan
A plan can be deleted from the plan view by selecting the blue options (•••) menu in the top-right corner and choosing Delete Plan.
Note: A plan cannot be deleted unless all plan lines and schedule headers associated with the plan have first been deleted.
4.4 Copying a Plan
MEPlan allows users to copy an entire plan to streamline campaign setup.
A pop-up window will appear where the brand and product (if available) can be selected or changed. Once confirmed, the system will create a new plan based on the selected brand and the structure of the original plan.
