Recurring Campaigns
Recurring campaigns allow an organization to schedule a text campaign on a scheduled recurring basis.
When you click on the Recurring tab your layout will be a little different. You will see all of your current recurring jobs. You can edit or delete 
You can also View Runs which will show you all of the runs for that job and current dashboard statistics/metrics as seen below.
Status Definitions
Delivered = Twilio has received confirmation of message delivery from the carrier, (and, where available, the destination handset).
Sent = Twilio has not received updated delivery information for your message. Typically, a sent status will be replaced by a delivered or undelivered status within seconds or minutes. Please note that US/Canada long code MMS often remain in sent status due to a lack of final delivery status updates from carriers. Once a message is older than 72 hours, receiving a further status is unlikely, although we will update the record if we receive one. Your messages will stay in sent status forever if you are sending messages using the deprecated /SMS/Message REST API Resource, which does not support delivery status updates.
Error = TO number is not a valid phone number
Undelivered = Twilio has received a delivery receipt indicating that the message was not delivered. This can happen for a number of reasons including carrier content filtering, availability of the destination handset, etc.
Preparing = A Text Manager status indicating that the message is being prepared to send.
Failed = The message could not be sent. This can happen for various reasons including queue overflows, account suspensions and media errors (in the case of MMS). Twilio charges a Failed Message Processing Fee of $0.001 per message that fails.
Campaign Information
To create a Recurring Campaign, on the "Recurring" tab, click the New Recurring Campaign button.

Target Audience
In this section, you specify the IQA to retrieve the result set for the SMS Campaign.
IMPORTANT:
The IQA must have at least 2 fields (iMIS ID and Mobile Phone number)
All columns MUST have the ALIAS field populated within your IQA. See below.
This field is then selected for Phone Number Column Name.
Other columns can be included in the IQA for use in the SMS Message which will be described further below.
Message
API Mode will allow you to select either LIVE or TEST. In test mode you will be allowed to conduct a campaign, but no SMS message will be sent. Live mode will send SMS messages.
Message Template is where you will construct the text message to your members. The Merge Fields to the right are fields from the selected IQA. You can use these fields in your message. For example. addressing your members by name. "Hello ${FullName},"
If you did not ALIAS all of your IQA columns as mentioned above, these Merge Fields will not work correctly.
iMIS Contact Data
Write to Activities or to the Communication Log (Interactions) for your member records upon successful messages sent.
You will need to create the TEXTMSG activity type if it does not exist in your system. See below.
To create the TEXTMSG activity type. Login to your Staff site. Navigate to Settings→Contacts→Activity Types.
