For an extended or edited workflow to control the sending of mailings, it must be activated. You can carry out the activation immediately or at a scheduled time.
A. Activate workflow immediately

A confirmation dialog box is then displayed, asking you to confirm that you want to activate the workflow.
Click the Activate now button to activate the workflow immediately.
The active workflow is now replaced with the revised workflow. Emails that are pending send are discarded.
