The Applications screen is where you can interact with joined partners that have proposed new custom contract terms or prospective new partners that have applied to your program. You can see the applicants’ media properties and audience insights, assign them to partner groups, contact them, accept and decline applications, and more.
Reduce your application backlog
The Run Workflow button allows you to process applications periodically to help reduce your application backlog. The button will appear greyed out if a workflow is busy processing. This may take some time if you need to process a lot of applications.
