      🔔 Important

      Any actions taken by rules as a result of decisions being scheduled for release will not be undone if the release is unscheduled. Unreleasing decisions should only be used in an emergency.

      Recently Released

      This stage displays recently released decisions. When recipients receive their decision, the Received Date (ET) field will populate with the date and time of opening in Eastern Time.
