Summary
We changed the monthly statements and invoices (for invoice accounts) in the Campaign Management Tool to comply with the new invoice system in Japan. The new system starts on October 1, 2023. Details are as follows.
Monthly statement
(1) Changes in format and output
■Date
October 18, 2023
■Changes
-Add and change items to meet the requirements of the invoice system
We have changed our monthly statements to include our registration number, duration, applicable tax rate, etc. When checking the past monthly statements, you will see a new format that meets the requirements of the invoice system.
-Produce monthly statements for all accounts
Getting monthly statements for all accounts that are currently available to official agencies became available to everyone. You can print out monthly statements for all of your company accounts and download them as CSV files. For Display Ads, you can print and export a CSV file of monthly statements for all accounts in units of “Auction,” “Guaranteed,” and “Total of Auction and Guaranteed.”
