Recurring campaign considerations
As a super admin or an access certifications admin, you can set up a recurrence schedule for campaigns to allow them to run periodically. This helps you save time and increases productivity. However, you must keep the following criteria in mind while configuring a recurring campaign.
-
In recurring campaign series, the duration of each campaign must be less than the interval between campaigns.
-
In the dropdown menu in the Repeats Every section, different prepopulated options are available depending on the values you enter for the campaign's duration and recurrence frequency type such as days, weeks, months, and years.
| Recurrence frequency type | Duration (days) | Recurrence interval* | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
| No recurrence | Enter a value between 1 and 90. | N/A | N/A |
| Days | Enter a value between 1 and 90 that is less than the recurrence interval. | Enter a value between 1 and 182. | N/A |
| Weeks | Enter a value between 1 and 90 that is less than the recurrence interval. | Enter a value between 1 and 26. | N/A |
| Months | Enter a value between 1 and 90 that is less than the recurrence interval. | Enter a value between 1 and 24. |
You can select either of these options from the dropdown menu:
The values inside the parentheses are populated automatically based on the Start date. If you set a campaign to repeat Monthly on [day of the week] of Week 5, and the month ends before that day, the campaign begins on that day in week four. If a month doesn't have the specified day, the last day is automatically used as the campaign's start date. For example, if you've set a campaign to recur on 30th of every month, it will begin on February 28th or February 29th. |
| Years | Enter a value between 1 and 90 that is less than the recurrence interval. | Enter either 1 or 2 as values. | N/A |
When increasing the campaign's duration, you can increase it up to 90 days or to one day before the campaign's next recurrence begins.
For example, you have a recurring campaign series where one campaign ends on the 15th and the next one begins on the 28th. You can increase the campaign duration of the first campaign up to the 27th. However, if your campaigns recur at an interval of more than 90 days, then you can only increase a campaign's duration such that the total duration of the campaign is 90 days.
