Environment

  • SAP Marketing Cloud Edition

Cause

  • Campaign which triggered the Emails should have been Ended or Stopped
  • Campaigns are not stopped , but the Emails that were sent are older than 180 days

Resolution

‘View in Browser’ functionality requires the Campaign Execution details to be able to show the contents in the Browser.

As per the Campaign design, these details are removed from the system in the following scenarios.

  1. When the Campaigns are Stopped
  2. If the EMAIL OUTBOUND Interactions are older than 180 days.

Cause

Campaign Execution Whitelist:

  • SAP Marketing Q Tenants require individual emails or email domains to be whitelisted before they can be sent.
  • With the whitelist, you explicitly allow the entered recipients to get messages.

Campaign Execution Blacklist:

  • Blacklisted emails or email domains are not being sent from SAP Marketing.
  • With the blacklist you explicitly block recipients from getting messages

Resolution

Use the Campaign Execution Whitelist app or the Campaign Execution Blacklist app to maintain emails or email domains according to the requirement.

  1. The Campaign Execution Whitelist is required for Q Tenants only.
  2. The whitelist is valid only, once some entries are maintained.
  3. An empty whitelist is not considered, and all mails are sent.
