How to create a copy instruction for geo-targeted copy

To create a copy instruction (CRI) containing multiple pieces of copy which are targeting specific regions you can follow these steps: 

1. On step 1 - Edit copy, complete all the mandatory fields and add all clock number details
2. Click on the "Show more/less detail" dropdown and click "Show Region Restrictions"
3. A region dropdown will appear next to each clock number, select the relevant region applicable to the clock. The dropdown is not mandatory if one clock has a region restriction but others don't, only apply a region to the relevant clock and leave the others blank.
4. Save step 1 and move to step 2 - copy relationships
5. Add clocks with no regional restriction to detail block one and select stations that don't accommodate regional restrictions.
6. Add your region specific clock to detail block two and select the region relevant to the copy.
7. Save and move to step 3 - Review/Send
8. Review your CRI and if you're happy send to all traffic depts. 

Points to note: 

• If you add a regional specific clock numbers or stations to pre-existing detail blocks you need to ensure the regions match. If not, Caria will display a warning and block you from sending the CRI. For example a clock number restricted to Scotland only and you add to a detail block containing station LWT.
• Regional restrictions are only applicable to the linear stations for ITV1 and Channel 4.
• If a region is incorrectly applied to a clock number or the regionality for a clock changes you can edit the applied region in Admin / Maintain Copy Library.
• You can see what regional restrictions have been applied to a clock number in the copy library on step 1 and also in the "copy defined for this CRI" box on step 2.
