Hi.

I need to resolve this problem with API. I have a budget order with endDate 20361231, when I modify that enddate to current date (for this operation i use the operator "SET") this operation finishes successfull, immediately after I must create a new Budget order with startDate 5 seconds after the current time but it's impossible because the API throws an error  "Overlapping budget found". ¿How I can to resolve this problem? ¿How long I have to wait to open the new BudgetOrder?. When I do the operation SET the API responds OK but when I refresh the BudgetOrder in AdWords UI I don't see the changes until more or less 15 min later.

I hope you answer asap.

Rodrigo.

Hi Rodrigo,

Are you saying after 15 minutes, you were able to create a new budgetOrder or you still can't? It does take sometime for a budgetOrder to get approved. You can use BudgetOrderService to check budgetOrder status. You can contact AdWords support or post question on AdWords forum if you would like to know more about that. 

Thanks,
Yin, AdWords API Team.

Hi Yin,

Yes, I can to create a new BudgetOrder if I wait between 5 and 15 min. But I don't want to wait so time, from I modify the endDate of BudgetOrder(using operator SET) until I create a new BudgetOrder. What is the time min and max i have to wait between modify the current BudgetOrder and create the new BudgetOrder, for the API doesn't return the exception:
"Overlapping budgets found".

Sorry, but my English isn't very good.


Thanks.

Rodrigo.

Hi Rodrigo, 

As I have mentioned in my reply, it's difficult to know when the updated budgetOrder is available as the bugetOrder is subjected to review. You can use BudgetOrderService to check budget status. For more information on this topic, please contact AdWords support or post question on AdWords forum if you would like to know more about that.
