Step 5 – Review & Launch

2 min read

Step 5 is the final step of the Campaign Wizard where you review your campaign configuration, check its health score, and decide how to launch it.

Campaign Health Score #

At the top of the Review step, you’ll see your campaign’s health score (0-100). This score indicates how well your campaign is configured and its likelihood of success.

Score Levels #

Score Status Meaning
90-100 Excellent Campaign is well-configured, ready to launch
70-89 Good Minor improvements possible but launch-ready
50-69 Fair Some issues to consider, review recommendations
30-49 Poor Significant issues that may affect performance
0-29 Critical Serious problems that need to be fixed

What Affects the Score #

  • Product availability and stock levels
  • Discount value appropriateness
  • Schedule conflicts with other campaigns
  • Missing or incomplete configuration
  • Product pricing concerns

Health Factors Card #

Displays critical issues that need attention before launching:

Critical Issues #

Problems that prevent the campaign from working correctly:

  • No products matched
  • All selected products are out of stock
  • Invalid discount configuration
  • Schedule conflicts that block all products

Critical issues are shown with a red indicator and must be resolved before launching with “active” status.

Recommendations Card #

Suggestions to improve your campaign’s effectiveness. These are categorized by type:

Product Recommendations #

  • Low stock warnings for discounted products
  • Out-of-stock products in selection
  • Products with price changes since last edit

Discount Recommendations #

  • Very high discount percentages (over 50%)
  • Extreme discounts that eliminate margin
  • BOGO configurations that may confuse customers

Schedule Recommendations #

  • Very short campaign durations
  • Very long campaign durations (over 30 days)
  • Recurring campaigns extending too far into future

General Recommendations #

  • Generic campaign name (suggest more descriptive)
  • Missing campaign description
  • Badge text improvements

Campaign Conflicts Card #

Shows other active campaigns that overlap with yours:

What Conflicts Show #

  • Campaign name and priority
  • Overlapping products count
  • Which campaign will “win” based on priority
  • Schedule overlap periods

Conflict Resolution #

Conflicts aren’t necessarily problems. The priority system handles which discount applies:

  • Higher priority campaigns override lower ones
  • Same priority: Both may apply (depends on configuration)
  • Consider adjusting priority if needed

Campaign Impact Analysis Card #

Shows the estimated reach of your campaign:

Metric Description
Products Matched Total products matching your selection criteria
Actually Discounted Products that will receive discount (after conflicts)
Coverage Rate Percentage of matched products being discounted

Excluded Products #

If some products won’t be discounted, you’ll see why:

  • Blocked by higher-priority campaign
  • Out of stock
  • Not purchasable
  • Failed condition filters

Launch Your Campaign Card #

Choose how to proceed with your campaign:

Launch Campaign / Activate Campaign #

  • Makes the campaign live immediately (or at scheduled time)
  • Discounts become visible to customers
  • Status changes to “active” or “scheduled”

For scheduled campaigns, launching means:

  • Campaign saves with “scheduled” status
  • Automatically activates at the start date/time
  • No further action needed

Save as Draft #

  • Saves the campaign without activating
  • Status remains “draft”
  • No discounts are applied
  • You can activate later from the campaigns list

Edit Mode Differences #

When editing an existing campaign:

  • Button text changes to “Update Campaign”
  • Shows current campaign status
  • Explains what will happen to active campaigns
  • Draft option will deactivate running campaigns

Sidebar Information #

While on Step 5, the sidebar shows a complete campaign summary:

  • Campaign name and description
  • Product selection summary
  • Discount type and value
  • Schedule dates
  • Recurring pattern (if enabled)
  • Rules summary (Pro)

After Launching #

Once you click “Launch Campaign” or “Save as Draft”:

  1. Campaign is saved to the database
  2. You’re redirected to the campaigns list
  3. Success notification confirms the action
  4. If active: Discounts immediately apply (or at scheduled time)

Review Step Tips #

  1. Check the Health Score: Aim for 70+ before launching
  2. Review Conflicts: Ensure your priority is set correctly
  3. Read Recommendations: Consider suggestions even if not critical
  4. Verify Impact: Confirm the number of products is what you expected
  5. Use Draft First: When uncertain, save as draft and test
  6. Document Changes: Update the description if you made adjustments
