This area of the window will display the current "in-use" status of the cart # entered for this piece of copy. Usually the same cart # is not used by multiple pieces of copy; however, there are circumstances where this may be the case (albeit much less often). This message will display whether or not the cart number is in use on other Customers.

  If you add copy from the CopyList window, you will have a drop down menu that allows you to choose any Customer entered into the system. If entered from the Contract, the Customer will automatically be chosen for you and cannot be modified. See Customers.
• Cart #
  The file number used by the audio cut in your AutomationSystem. This can be edited even if you have chosen to use automatic cart number assignment.

• Ad-ID
  The ad ID number or ISCI Code given by an Agency to the commercial.
