Each organization has its own list of holidays, communication blackout days, campaign launches and other important dates, and those dates can change year to year. Important Days can help you remind your team about those special days and even skip News Digests if appropriate.
To access this feature, go to Settings > Sending Options > Important Days.
Only Account Administrators can add and/or edit Important Days
Adding an Important Day
To add a new Important Day, click + Important Day on the top right of the page. This will open a modal where you can choose the date that you would like to indicate as an Important Day.
Details
The Details tab allows you to give your Important Day a name and write a message to your communicators with information as to why this day is important. The Title and Message will appear for your Team Members and Admins when they are scheduling communications.
Settings
The Settings tab allows you to Skip News Digests on the Important Day indicated. When it is toggled on, no automated News Digests will be sent that day. This will be based on your organization's set time zone. For more information about setting your organization's time zone, please review Organizational Information.
Only one Important Day can be scheduled for a given day.
Actions
You can Edit, Duplicate, or Delete an Important Day using the ellipse menu.
Click Edit to open the Important Days modal and update any necessary information. Click Duplicate to open a copied version of the Important Day. This will copy all of the existing information excluding the date. Click Delete to remove the existing Important Day from your organization’s list.
Deleting an Important Day is a permanent action and cannot be undone.
