Schedule a message for later

Do this when you want a message to go out at a set time, such as the morning of an event.

Who can do this: anyone who can send messages in Message Manager.

1. Start a new email or text. See Send an email to members or Send a text message to members.
2. Choose at least one recipient and type the message. An email also needs a subject.
3. Next to Send, click the clock icon (Schedule Send).
4. In the Schedule Send window, click the date in the calendar.
5. Under Select Time:, choose the Hour, the Minute and AM or PM.
6. Click Schedule Send.

You see “Message scheduled successfully.” The message shows in the Message Manager list with the status Scheduled. The Date Sent / Scheduled column shows when it will go out.

Good to know

• You can pick a date from tomorrow on. You cannot pick today or a past date.
• The time starts at 12:00 PM. Minutes can be 00, 20 or 40.
• To change the date or time, see Change a draft or scheduled message.
• To stop a scheduled message, delete it. See Delete a message.

If it does not work

• Validation Error: Add the recipients and the message. An email also needs a subject. Then try again.
• “Please select a time.”: Choose a time before you click Schedule Send.
