Use targeting templates to create re-usable targeting setups that you can easily apply to flights.
Targeting templates use the same parameters that are available to you when creating a flight. Once you create and save a template, you can apply that template to your flights with just a few clicks.
Targeting templates are managed in TAP Settings.
Targeting templates are not dynamically linked when they are applied in a flight! If you apply a targeting template in a flight and then edit the targeting setup in the flight, the changes do not affect the original template. Similarly, if you edit a targeting template that has already been applied to flights, those flights do not update to the new template rules.
Applying a Targeting Template in a Flight
When you apply a targeting template to a flight, any targeting rules that already exist for the flight are replaced by the targeting rules in the template. However, once you apply the template, you can add additional targeting rules to the flight.
To apply a targeting template:
To apply a targeting template, click Apply template in the flight’s Targeting section.
Choose a template from the list that appears, and click Apply this template. You are asked to confirm your choice.
Editing a Targeting Setup From a Template
Targeting templates are not dynamically linked when they are applied in a flight! If you apply a targeting template in a flight and then edit the targeting setup in the flight, the changes do not affect the original template. Similarly, if you edit a targeting template that has already been applied to flights, those flights do not update to the new template rules.
Once you apply a targeting template in a flight, you can:
Add additional targeting rules to the flight;
Edit rules that were applied from the targeting template;
Remove rules that were applied from the targeting template.
Simply add, edit, or remove rule as you would in any targeting setup.
Editing the Targeting Template
Because targeting templates are not dynamic (i.e., once applied to a flight they are no longer linked to the template), you cannot edit the template from within the flight.
To edit a targeting template, go to TAP Settings > Organization > Targeting template.
Saving a Targeting Setup as a Template
While you cannot edit a targeting template from within a flight, you can save your targeting rules setup (whether it’s from a template or built from scratch) as a new targeting template. Simply click Save as template and provide a template name.
Targeting template names are not case sensitive. For example, you cannot save a template with the name
My Best Templateif you already have a template calledMy best template.
