Stop a campaign early

Open the campaign's menu in Recognition → Campaigns and select Stop campaign. Its badges can't be given from then on, and you can't restart it.

Go to Recognition → Campaigns, open the menu (three dots) at the end of the campaign’s row and select Stop campaign. In Stop this campaign?, select Stop campaign again. You can also stop it from the campaign’s own page.

You can stop a campaign that is Scheduled or Active. Stopping can take a few seconds. Wait for “Campaign stopped” before you do anything else.

What happens

  • Employees can’t give the campaign’s badges any more.
  • No more campaign emails go out.
  • A campaign that had already started moves to Past. It shows as Completed, with today as its end date.
  • A campaign that hadn’t started yet shows as Stopped.

You can’t restart or delete a stopped campaign. Its badges stay with it, so a new campaign needs new badges.

To see how the campaign went, open its menu under Past and select View report. It opens the Campaign Badge Report in Recognition → Reports.

If you only want the campaign to finish sooner, on a later day than today, change its end date instead.
