ContactNow: Add a Campaign
Overview
Creating a new campaign is a convenient way to keep the data organized when using the service for multiple products. Each Campaign gets a separate set of database fields, datasets, queues, and outcome codes. Agents are shared across all.
Important Note: Campaigns are permanent. This is to preserve data integrity on the service.
Once created, a campaign cannot be removed from the service, and will always appear in all features which require the selection of a campaign.
