Marketing activities
====================
When creating a campaign in the :guilabel:`Marketing Automation` app, users can plan marketing
activities such as email or SMS campaigns. To get started, navigate to the :guilabel:`Workflow`
area, and click :guilabel:`Add New Activity`. A blank activity template will appear where
parameters can be set for that specific activity.
When creating a campaign in the *Marketing Automation* app, users can plan marketing activities,
such as email or SMS campaigns.
When :guilabel:`Add New Activity` is selected, a blank activity template will appear with the
following customizable fields:
To get started, navigate to the bottom of a marketing automation campaign detail form, and click
:guilabel:`Add New Activity`. Doing so reveals a :guilabel:`Create Activities` pop-up window. This
pop-up window is a blank activity template, where specific parameters can be set for that particular
activity.
The following fields are available in the :guilabel:`Create Activities` pop-up window (when
:guilabel:`Add New Activity` is clicked):

- :guilabel:`Mail Template`: choose from pre-configured templates (or create a new one on-the-fly).
- :guilabel:`Trigger`: choose when this activity should be triggered.
- :guilabel:`Expiry Duration`: configure to stop the actions after a specific amount of time (after
the scheduled date). When selected, a :guilabel:`Cancel after` field appears, in which the user
can choose how many :guilabel:`Hours, Days, Weeks, or Months` they want the actions to cease
after the initial date.
- :guilabel:`Activity Filter`: domain related to this activity (and all subsequent Child
Activities).
- :guilabel:`Applied Filter`: activity will *only* be performed if it satisfies the specified
domain (filter).

After the activity's settings are fully configured, click :guilabel:`Save & Close` to finish
creating the activity.
After the activity's settings are fully configured, click :guilabel:`Save & Close` to save the
activity and return to the marketing automation campaign form, :guilabel:`Save & New` to save the
activity and immediately create another one in a fresh :guilabel:`Create Activities` pop-up window,
or :guilabel:`Discard` to delete the activity and return to the marketing automation campaign form.
Workflow activity
=================
Once saved, the :guilabel:`Workflow Activity` will appear in Odoo, where each activity will be
shown as a graph by default. The configured trigger time for that activity can be found to the left
of the :guilabel:`Workflow Activity` card.
Once an activity is saved, the :guilabel:`Workflow Activity` section appears at the bottom of the
marketing automation campaign form. Each activity is displayed as a line graph.
In the :guilabel:`Workflow Activity` section, there is also the number of activities that are
successful or rejected. The :guilabel:`Success` and :guilabel:`Rejected` numbers are color-coded
in the graph for easy reference (in green and red, respectively).
The configured :guilabel:`Trigger` time for that activity can be found to the left of the
:guilabel:`Workflow Activity` card in the :guilabel:`Workflow` section.
Once the activity has been triggered, a figure representing the number of :guilabel:`Success` or
:guilabel:`Rejected` activities will be displayed to the right of the graph.

Child activities
================
Odoo also has the option to :guilabel:`Add Child Activity`. *Child Activities* are sub-activities
that are connected to (and triggered by) the activity above it, which is also known as its *Parent
Activity*.
There is also the option to add a *child activity* by clicking :guilabel:`Add child activity`,
located at the bottom of each activity block in the :guilabel:`Workflow` section of a marketing
automation form.
Odoo provides a number of triggering options to launch a :guilabel:`Child Activity` - all of which
depend on the trigger configurations related to the parent activity. Under the desired parent
activity, hover over :guilabel:`Add child activity`, and select the trigger:
