Notes

• You can open a campaign to view the progress, success, failure, and completion of the distributed campaign activity.
• At least one marketing list must be associated with the activity before you can distribute it. If there is no marketing list associated with the activity that you want to distribute, no activities will be created.
• You can only distribute mail merge campaign activities to marketing lists that all contain the same type of record. For example, if one marketing list contains accounts Companies that might do business with your organization. and a second marketing list contains leads Potential customers who must be qualified or disqualified as sales opportunities. If a lead is qualified, it can be converted to an opportunity, account, and/or contact., the mail merge campaign activity will fail. Create a separate mail merge campaign activity for each group of marketing lists with the same record type.
