IMPORTANT:

1. After you have selected the required action click ‘Perform actions’.
2. The time required for completing the action is basically determined by the size of the group it is run for. The larger number of excluded contacts or cases of advanced filtering, the longer the process will take.
3. You can run several actions simultaneously.
