Refreshing Campaing audience

In addition to configuring scheduling options, the user can also determine whether to refresh the audience for the Campaign as part of the scheduled execution. The user can further opt between refreshing the population for each run or just for the first run.

Note: The refresh audience option is only available when the Campaign audience is a criteria Segment.

Direct output to template

For Multi-Channel Campaigns, Pega Customer Decision Hub provides support for directly outputting the results of a scheduled run to a configured Database Template rule. In this mode, action processing is bypassed.

To utilize this feature, the marketer can enable the Write Campaign results using a database template check box and specify the desired Database Template rule in the Template field.

Note: This feature requires the Database Template rule to utilize the Append writing mode. The smart-prompt for the Template field only lists templates that utilize this mode.

After configuring the schedule, marketers can utilize the template link in the Engagement section or the right overview pane to open the Database Template rule.
