The purpose of this guide is to explain how you can pause Collection messages being sent to delinquent Customers if they give you a date they promise to pay, such as their next payday. Customers will be re-entered into the Collection workflow if they miss their promised to pay date. Please check with your management team before using this feature so you can act according to their policies. The promised to pay date should always be in the very near future.
