Shipping partition

Icomm offers a variety of features to maximize your marketing automation strategies. One such feature is partitioning, which allows users to split their databases into smaller segments and send emails to each segment at different times.

This option is available on the Shipping Options tab within the Schedule Shipments module. There you will be able to Enable sending partition and configure its options to send in a partitioned manner to your contacts.

Setting

Once the Sending Configuration Data is completed and the database has been selected in the Profiles and audiences tab, you will be able to choose the Sending Options offered by the platform. To set up a split shipment, follow these steps:

Select the option Enable Delivery Partitions



Complete Partition Size (quantity to send): is the number of emails to send in each partition

Configure the Partition Schedule:

Hourly: shipments can be scheduled by time. You can also program the time slot in which you want to make shipments. For example. That a shipment be made every 1 hour, between 9 am and 6 pm. In addition, it is possible to define which days of the week the partition will be carried out. For example: that it is sent every 1 hour, between 9 am and 6 pm, on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.



Daily: shipments can be scheduled by day. With this option, you can define every how many days the shipments should be made. You can also select which days of the week the shipments should be made.



Monthly: select how many months the shipment should be made.
