Kolleno provides two workflow triggers designed to handle failed communications:

  • Email Bounced

    • Trigger condition: Fires when an email fails delivery and is marked as bounced.

  • Text Message Undelivered

    • Trigger condition: Fires when an SMS is sent but marked as undelivered.

Both triggers are available under When an event occurs and allow you to automate actions based on delivery failures.

These triggers are commonly used to:

  • Create tasks to update customer contact details

  • Escalate communication from email to SMS

  • Escalate from SMS to physical mail


How to Configure the Trigger

Step 1: Create a New Workflow

  1. Go to Workflows.

  2. Select Create workflow.

  3. Choose When an event occurs.

Step 2: Select the Trigger

  • For bounced emails, select Email Bounced under Email Sent.

  • For undelivered SMS, select Text Message Undelivered under Text Message Sent.


Using Filters

You can apply filters to narrow down which records trigger the workflow.


Previewing Matching Records

Before activating the workflow, you can preview records that meet your criteria.

  • The preview shows example records that currently match your filters.

  • Future records with the same criteria will be enrolled after activation.

  • Status indicators clearly show Bounced or Undelivered messages.
