# Global Settings — Limits Reset Rules, Old Batch Cleanup, Cron Toggle & Next Run

Use **GravityOps → Mass Notifications → Deliverability** to manage sending limits and batch retention. Use **Batches & Sending** to monitor counters, control cron processing, and manage individual batches. The legacy **Forms → Settings → Mass Notifications** entry redirects to Deliverability.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

## Send Limits

See **Setup → Configure Global Send Limits (Throttling)** for details on
how to enter your provider’s limits and why it’s best to stay below
them. The Deliverability tab stores the limits, while Batches & Sending displays the configured limits and shows
- **Limit Counters**: Displays current usage vs. limits for per minute, hour, day, and month (if configured).
- **Next Send-Ready Time**: Shows when the next email can be sent based on throttling. If no limits are currently hit, it will say "Ready now".

------------------------------------------------------------------------

## Old Batch Cleanup

- On the **Deliverability** tab, choose how long completed and canceled batches are kept.
- Options: 1 month, 6 months, 1 year, or Never.
- Scheduled, pending, or in-progress batches are never deleted. Only completed or canceled batches that have not been updated within the retention period will be removed.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

## Cron Job Toggle & Next Run

- The **Batches & Sending** tab shows whether a cron job is currently scheduled.
- You’ll see either:
  - “Cron jobs are currently paused”
  - “You do not currently have a cron job scheduled”
  - or “The next cron job is scheduled for [date/time]”.
- Use the **Toggle Cron Schedule** button to pause or resume the cron jobs as
  needed.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

## Batch Tables

The **Batches & Sending** tab includes expandable/collapsible tables of all
batches, organized by status:

- **In Progress**
- **Pending**
- **Scheduled**
- **Completed**
- **Canceled**

Each row shows basic info (form, feed, batch label, entry ID, batch
size, last updated, times sent). Clicking a batch reveals more details,
including the individual recipients, subject, message, and delivery
status.

From these tables you can also:

- **(Re)Send** to start delivery immediately (still respects
  throttling).
- **Cancel** a pending or in-progress batch.
- **Mark Complete** to stop sending and close out the batch.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

These tools give you visibility into your sending pipeline, control over
background jobs, and the ability to keep your database tidy by clearing
out old completed or canceled batches.
