Overview

OneStrata has a large number of fields and terms related to costs and cost calculations, in order to effectively handle complex pricing scenarios that may involve multiple types of currencies.

  • Cost Methods
  • Currencies
  • Cost Types
AnchorCost-MethodsCost-MethodsCost Methods
  • methods: The cost method defines what types of cost-related fields interact in which types of ways, in order to determine what is billed to the client, what is paid to the vendor, and what is income to the agency
  • Agency, Client, and Vendor Currencies: What type of currency or currencies the agency, client, and vendor transact in.
  • Cost Types: Cost- and rate-related fields
  • Rate Types: The primary unit type and rate being purchased

Cost Methods

The cost method of a Schedule grid line defines what type of cost-related fields are available or editable, and how they are calculated. Each top-level line on the Schedule grid (a Cost Package, a standalone Media Package, or a standalone Placement) can have a different cost method.

There are three cost methods:

  • Standard (default)
  • Margin

  • Allocated
Cost MethodDescription

Standard-Cost-Method
Standard

Cost Methods are like pricing models; they define which Schedule Grid fields accept user-inputted values and which formulas are applied to those fields in order to calculate what is paid to the Vendor or billed to the Client. Each top-level line on a Schedule Grid (a Cost Package, a Media Package that is not part of a Cost Package, or a Placement that is not part of a Media or Cost Package) can apply a different Cost Method.

OneStrata has three Cost Method options:

  • Standard Cost Method
  • Margin Cost Method
  • Allocated Cost Method

Depending on Enterprise or Agency settings, the Margin Cost Method and Allocated Cost Method options might not be available.

Vendor

In the Standard cost method, vendor costs and

Client costs

clients are directly connected:

  • Vendor Gross Cost = Client Gross Cost 
  • If one set of
Vendor
  • vendor or
Client costs (a combination of Unit and Rate, Unit and Total Cost, or Rate and Total Cost)
  • client costs are defined, all other
 Cost Types, like Client Commission or Vendor Discount,
  • cost types can be calculated
from
  • based on that single set of defined costs.
AnchorMargin-Cost-Method
  • A set of costs is a combination of:
    • Units and rate
    • Unit and total cost
    • Rate and total cost

Margin

Margin-Cost-Method

Vendor costs and Client costs are calculated separately: Vendor Net Cost =/= Client Net Cost

  • The difference between the Vendor Net Cost and the Client Net Cost creates a "margin", which is income to the Agency.
  • If one set of Vendor costs are defined, the other Vendor Cost Types can be calculated from that set but the Client Cost Types cannot, and vice versa.
  • Vendor and Client costs are connected by the Margin Percentage value. For example, Vendor Net Cost = Client Net Cost - (Client Net Cost x Margin Percentage) 
AnchorAllocated-Cost-MethodAllocated-Cost-MethodAllocated Cost Method

Used for when the agency is charging the client a fee, which is a % of the cost of the media plus that allocated fee. So user enters the Allocated amount for the line, applies and allocated fee, then the client net cost of that line = the allocated amount less any of the allocated fees. Then all other costs and rates are calculated form the client net cost using the standard set of formulas

  • Used when the Agency is charging the client a fee that is a % of the cost of the media plus that allocated fee.
  • Add media budget including a Percentage of Media fee into the Allocated Amount (CC).

Margin Cost Method

Info

The margin workflow is a gated feature and not enabled by default. If the margin workflow is not enabled, the Margin cost method is not available.

To enable this feature, contact your OneStrata representative.


In the Margin cost method, vendor costs and client costs are not directly connected:

  • Vendor Net Cost =/= Client Net Cost
  • The difference between the Vendor Net Cost and the Client Net Cost creates a "margin", which is income to the agency. This difference is captured in the Other Income value.
  • If one set of vendor costs are defined, the other vendor cost types can be calculated from that set, but the client cost types cannot be directly calculated.
  • If one set of client costs are defined, the other client cost types can be calculated from that set, but the vendor cost types cannot be directly calculated.

Vendor costs and client costs are connected by a third value, the Margin Percentage value:

  • Vendor Net Cost = Client Net Cost - (Client Net Cost x Margin Percentage)

Allocated Cost Method

Info

The allocated workflow is a gated feature and not enabled by default. If the allocated workflow is not enabled, the Allocated cost method is not available.

To enable this feature, contact your OneStrata representative.


In the Allocated cost method, a fixed amount of money has been "allocated", or set aside, to cover both the cost of the media purchase and any related fees.

Costs are calculated in the following order:

  1. The Allocated Amount is entered.
  2. The Allocated Fee Cost is calculated and subtracted from the Allocated Amount. The difference is the Client Net Cost.
    • Client Net Cost = Allocated Amount - Allocated Fee Cost
  3. All other costs and rates are calculated from the Client Net Cost, similar to the Standard cost method option.

Cost Type Reference

In OneStrata, cost types—fields related to calculating costs—are broadly grouped into three types:

  • Client costs: Costs between the agency and the client
  • Vendor costs: Costs between the agency and the vendor
  • Other costs: Non-client-related and non-vendor-related costs

When a cost type is displayed or used, it specifies which type of currency the cost type is in:

  • Example: Vendor Net Cost (VC) refers to the vendor net cost, displayed in the Vendor Currency
  • Example: Vendor Net Cost (CC)refers to the vendor net cost, displayed in the Client Currency

Rate-Types
Rate-Types
Rate Type Reference

rate type indicates the primary unit type and cost per unit negotiated between an agency buyer and a vendor for a media purchase.

The following table is a list of available rate types: 

  • Rate Divider: A number by which the rate is divided, when calculating costs
    • If the Rate Divider is 1000, this means that the unit type is purchased at a cost per mille/thousand (CPM/CPT) rate.
    • For example, if the rate type is CPM (Impressions), the Units value is 100,000, and the Vendor Net Rate is $1.00, this means that:
      • Units: 100,000 impressions are purchased
      • Rate (Vendor Net Rate): $1.00 per 1,000 impressions
      • Cost (Vendor Net Cost): $100.00 (= 100,000 units x ($1.00 / 1,000 units))
  • Available For Schedule Lines: Whether or not the rate type can be added to a Schedule grid line
  • Available for Fee Records: Whether or not the rate type can be added to a Fee record
