Displaying, sorting and filtering the subscribe/unsubscribe mailings table

Step by step

  1. On the tab of the mailing list, click the Subscriptions agent > Subscribe/unsubscribe mailings tab.

    The table provides an overview of the subscribe and unsubscribe mailings created in the mailing list.

    The symbol in front of the subscribe/unsubscribe mailing in the table indicates the current status of the subscribe/unsubscribe mailing:

    Description

    Draft

    The subscribe/unsubscribe mailing has the Draft status.

    It still has to be approved and activated before it can be used as a subscribe/unsubscribe mailing.

    Approval requested

    Approval has been requested for the subscribe/unsubscribe mailing. A response is still pending. If approval is granted, the subscribe/unsubscribe mailing will acquire the Approved status. If approval is denied, the mailing will be reset to the Draft status.

    Approved

    The subscribe/unsubscribe mailing is approved. It can now be activated, that is, assigned to the relevant list.

    Active

    The subscribe/unsubscribe mailing has the Active status, meaning that it has been approved and is currently assigned to the relevant list.

    Inactive

    The subscribe/unsubscribe mailing has the Inactive status, meaning that it was assigned to a list in the past, but the assignment was removed.

    When you select a subscribe or unsubscribe mailing in the table, further information on the mailing is displayed in the Details section beneath the table (for example, you can see which template was used (if any), the format in which the subscribe/unsubscribe mailing was created and the subscribe/unsubscribe mailing ID).

  2. To sort the table by columns, double-click the relevant column header, for example, Name.
  3. You can filter the subscribe and unsubscribe mailings using the filter input field (View and filter the mailings table).

  4. In addition, you can filter the subscribe and unsubscribe mailings using the filter drop-down list.

    Note: If you set filters both in the filter input field and in the filter drop-down list, only subscribe and unsubscribe mailings that fulfil the criteria of both settings are displayed.

    Select one of the following entries in the drop-down list:

    • All subscribe/unsubscribe mailings: Does not filter the subscribe and unsubscribe mailings
    • Draft: Displays only subscribe and unsubscribe mailings for which approval has not been requested and therefore not given.
    • Approval requested: Displays only subscribe and unsubscribe mailings for which approval has been requested.
    • Approved: Displays only subscribe and unsubscribe mailings for which approval has been granted.
    • Active: Displays only subscribe and unsubscribe mailings that have been assigned to a list as a subscribe/unsubscribe mailing in the Subscriptions agent > Subscription or Cancel subscription tab (Subscription and unsubscription setup).
    • Inactive: Displays only subscribe and unsubscribe mailings that were assigned to a list in the past (that is, the assignment was removed).
    • Subscription: welcome, subscription: confirmation, subscription: timeout, unsubscription: farewell, unsubscription: confirmation, unsubscription: timeout: Only displays the corresponding subscribe or unsubscribe mailings
  • The table now displays only the subscribe and unsubscribe mailings that match your filter settings. The filter settings serve only to improve the clarity of the table and do notinfluence whether subscribe and unsubscribe mailings are sent or which subscribe and unsubscribe mailings are sent.
