Before you start
- Your own approved partner account and a confirmed agreement with reserved funding.
- Completed training work, agreed rights/disclosures and either verified originals for the same deliverable group or version-specific HTTPS work links.
- Reviewer access to the linked files and a retained original copy; affnet does not copy external file contents.
Follow the steps
Choose the agreed deliverable
Open your agreement, select Deliverables and review, then choose Prepare delivery evidence for the correct group. Read the acceptance criteria and UTC deadline. Continue an existing record instead of creating another.
What you should see: The group belongs to your confirmed agreement. Each group has at most one delivery record with versioned revisions.
Prepare and save privately
Describe the work, source rights and disclosures. Explain measurements for verified views, conversions or hybrid compensation. Under Verified original files, select up to 20 files for this group and classify their evidence types. Include at least one work file or HTTPS work link. Choose Save private draft.
What you should see: The draft and selected files remain private. Other originals stay unselected. Saving does not request review.
Check access and submit
Check the selected filenames, sizes, hashes and evidence types. Open external links using intended reviewer permissions. Explain late work, review the confirmation and choose Confirm and submit evidence. Keep separate source copies.
What you should see: The exact submitted description, links and file references are shared. A file manifest records verified hash and size. Missing or changed originals block submission. Verification does not establish ownership or create payment.
Respond to requested changes
Read the decision note. If changes are requested, edit and save privately, then review and submit the new version. To revise a still-submitted version before a decision, write a note and choose Withdraw this submission first.
What you should see: The advertiser continues to see the last submitted evidence until you resubmit. History preserves every shared version; withdrawal does not erase it.
Inspect acceptance and hand over
Open the accepted evidence and history. Record the agreement, group, delivery and accepted version for operations. Preserve the original files and the rights evidence with the access restrictions agreed by the parties.
What you should see: Accepted records and file manifests cannot be edited through runtime roles. Provider retention and backup recovery still require live qualification. Acceptance blocks automatic cancellation return; settlement remains separate.
If something goes wrong
Submission is unavailable
Check partner status, confirmed agreement, reserved funding and any pending cancellation. Resolve these conditions with the responsible party.
A link changed or cannot be opened
Preserve the original and correct access before review. Before acceptance, request changes or withdraw and submit a new version; after acceptance, preserve the issue and contact operations.
The result is uncertain or the version changed
Reload the current delivery and inspect history before retrying. Do not assume a timeout means the action failed.
A selected original is unavailable
Check its group and verification status. Do not overwrite it. Preserve the reference, ask operations to investigate, then remove or replace it in a new private revision before resubmission.
Try it in training
Complete OPS-14 with a separate training advertiser: private draft, submission, change request, unshared revision, resubmission and acceptance. Demonstrate late-explanation rejection and preserved history. Record actual evidence without claiming a payment. Include two verified originals: share the first, save the second privately, withdraw, and prove the advertiser still sees only the first until resubmission. Check both historical downloads.
Check your understanding
Does affnet preserve the bytes of an externally linked video?
No. External links preserve URL text only. Native attachments preserve a verified file manifest and allow authorized downloads, but provider-level byte retention and recovery must still be qualified. Keep source copies.
