Managing campaign schedule

The campaign schedule decides when a campaign starts running and when it expires. Defining a start and end time for your campaigns allows you to plan ahead.

The following scenarios show how scheduling a campaign affects its state:

  • The schedule is effective only when you activate the campaign.
  • The campaign schedule uses the Application's time zone setting.

Scheduling a campaign​

For each campaign you create, you can define a start time, end time, or both. You can modify a campaign schedule at any point.

To schedule a campaign:

  1. On the left-side menu of your campaign, click Settings > Schedule, and set:
    • Start time: Date and time when the campaign begins
      Running
      .
    • End time: Date and time when the campaign becomes
      Expired
      .
  2. Click Save Schedule.
tip

Define an end time for all your campaigns so that you have better control over the discounts offered.
