Message and campaign status reference

Understand the statuses shown for messages, campaigns, approvals, imports, and delivery processes.

Reference

Created or on hold: The object exists but is not yet ready for execution.
Ready: Required preparation is complete, but release or scheduled execution is still pending.
Approved or not started: Authorization exists and the object waits for its start condition.
Scheduled: Execution is approved for a future time.
Pending or queued: Processing has been accepted and awaits or enters a worker queue.
Processing or active: Current work or campaign execution is running.
Paused or inactive: New or current processing is intentionally suspended according to object semantics.
Sent or finished: The applicable processing step completed; downstream delivery or conversion can still change later metrics.
Bounced, rejected, failed, or error: Processing or delivery did not complete successfully and requires classification.
Closed: The campaign does not accept new starts and has reached its configured end state.

Identify whether the status belongs to a message, campaign, import, approval, queue item, or delivery attempt.
Check the timestamp, preceding status, owner, and related error or report.
Distinguish a technical queue state from final customer-channel delivery.
Use the object-specific action and recovery procedure.

The same word can have different operational consequences for different object types.
Statuses and transitions can vary by release and enabled workflow.
Do not retry an ambiguous state until duplicate impact has been assessed.

Note
Exact UI labels, availability, and behavior can depend on the Elaine.io release, licensed capabilities, permissions, and project configuration.
