Hi, I am trying to automate Budget Order management (I am using consolidated billing). I want to be able to add an amount to a budget order using the adwords api. Using the BudgetOrderService, I can get a BudgetOrder <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201607/BudgetOrderService.BudgetOrder>, and see its spendingLimit. I can also use BudgetOrderService to modify the spendingLimit.
Using these, I can increase the Budget Amount of a BudgetOrder by any amount. Let's say I want to add $50 to a $180 budget: I get the BudgetOrder's spendingLimit ($180) and add $50 for a total of $230. I then use BudgetOrderService to set the spendingLimit of the budget order to $230. So far, this has been working perfectly. The problem comes in when there is a credit on the budget order: <https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-QT7C_lpPsNc/V65O6BDroCI/AAAAAAAAA6Y/k92kV4CVk-gCgdFVqACwTA61OgxJsIKuwCLcB/s1600/Screen%2BShot%2B2016-08-12%2Bat%2B4.50.26%2BPM.png> In this case, the BudgetOrder's spendingLimit is $280.00, which makes sense, I guess: $180 + $100 = $280 Let's say I want to add $50 to this budget order. I get the spendingLimit ($280), and add $50 for a total of $330. I use BudgetOrderService to set the spendingLimit of this particular budget order to $330. I expect to see in the account's Account Budgets page: *Budget Amount* $230 +$100 = $330 But what I get is: *Budget Amount* $330 +$100 = $430 So, if I am looking at this correctly, spendingLimit represents *Budget Amount* + *Credit Amount,* but when I mutate the budget order, spendingLimit *only* represents *Budget Amount.* Is there any way around this? (If it makes any difference, I am using the googleads/googleads-python-lib <https://github.com/googleads/googleads-python-lib> client library) Thanks! -- -- =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ Also find us on our blog and Google+: https://googleadsdeveloper.blogspot.com/ https://plus.google.com/+GoogleAdsDevelopers/posts =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "AdWords API Forum" group.
