Requirements for Launching Campaigns Manually

Before launching a campaign manually, make sure you have performed the following tasks:

• Add a position to the marketing Administrators Access Group. The position of the person who launches the campaign must be a member of the Marketing Administrators access group. If the position is not part of this access group, the launch buttons will be unavailable. For instructions, see Siebel Marketing Installation and Administration Guide.

  NOTE:  This also applies to a partner using the Siebel Partner Portal.

• In the Campaign List Distribution view, set up vendors and export list formats.
• Load any segments, segment tree cells, and lists that you plan to use into the campaign history.
• If you plan to send offers that use a distribution profile, test the campaign to make sure that the profile is set up correctly and that offer is sent with expected results. For more information on testing campaigns, see About Testing Campaign Offers.
