Scheduled ad spend and ROI reporting

Purpose

1.1. Automate scheduled extraction, calculation, and distribution of advertising spend and ROI reports for clients across multiple ad platforms.

1.4. Align reporting frequency to campaign cycles—daily, weekly, or monthly—adhering to client SLAs.

Trigger Conditions

2.1. Time-based: Scheduled triggers (e.g., every Monday 8AM UTC, 1st of month) initiate workflow.
2.2. Event-based: Completion of prior step (e.g., ad platform data sync) automatically starts reporting process.
2.3. Manual override: Optional dashboard control to force immediate cycle.
