Scheduling the SendMarketingTriggers job

This command sends any applicable e-mail activities.

The SendMarketingTriggers job calls the Process MarketingTrigger Web service with the SendTriggers action. There are no parameters for this command. If the configured time at which your store sends e-mail activities is after 12:45 AM, then no changes need to be made. If the configured send time is between 12:00 AM and 12:45 AM, then you may want to reduce the interval from the default value of 45 minutes, if you need the e-mail to be sent as close to the configured time as possible. That is, if the store is configured to send e-mail at 12:30 AM, you can reduce the interval to 30 minutes so that the e-mail is sent immediately.

To schedule the SendMarketingTriggers job:

  1. Open the Administration Console and select Site on the Administration Console Site/Store Selection page.

  2. From the Configuration menu, click Scheduler. A list of jobs that are scheduled to run on your store displays.

  3. From the list, select SendMarketingTriggers.

  4. Update the Schedule interval field to reflect your preferred interval. This value should be the number of seconds between when the job is restarted. The default value of 2700 seconds means that the job runs every 45 minutes.

  5. Click OK.


Your job is listed on the Scheduler Status Display page and will run at the specified start time.
