PSU, UNH, USNH - Salesforce Marketing Cloud: Cancelling a Scheduled Send

This article will discuss the method to use in order to cancel a send once it has been scheduled. Once an email has been scheduled to send for a future date and time the user has the ability to cancel that scheduled send with a few simple steps.

 

NOTE: Withdrawing email content DOES NOT cancel the previously scheduled send.  The scheduled send will use the original content. i.e. If the user updates the content after a send has been scheduled, they will need to cancel the send, and reschedule with the new updated content.

NOTE:  Emails that have been selected to be sent "Immediately" can not be cancelled or Recalled.

 

 

Instructions:

Step 1 - Once an email has been scheduled to be sent inside Salesforce Marketing Cloud (SFMC) it goes into a "Scheduled" status and is pending to be sent.

Step 2 - From the Overview page, use the Pending tab on the right side of the page to locate the email that has been scheduled.

Step 3 - Click on the name of the email and open it.

Step 4 - Once open, the user can choose to Cancel Send from here which will remove the send from happening.

 

Step 5 - Click OK to the dialog

 

Step 6 - SFMC will provide the user with a confirmation

 

Outcome:

Your scheduled email has been cancelled.
