# How Target Lists Work

> The structure, statuses, and workflow steps behind every Target List.

## Target List structure

| Tab      | What it does                                                                                                           |
| -------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Workflow | Shows the list's Start → Buyers → End flow and lets you configure how long the list runs and which buyers it captures. |
| Buyers   | Shows the buyers currently captured in the list, with company, persona, and title context.                             |

## Target List status

The Target Lists page lists your lists with filter tabs — **All**, **Running**, **Not Running**, **Draft**, and **Deleted** — so you can quickly see where each list stands.

* **Draft** — the list has been created but hasn't been run yet, or its workflow hasn't been fully configured.
* **Running** — the list's workflow is active and capturing matching buyers.
* **Not Running** — the list's workflow has been stopped.
* **Deleted** — the list has been removed.
* How long a Running list keeps capturing new buyers depends on its Workflow settings (see below).

## Workflow tab

The Workflow tab shows how a Target List is built, as three steps:

* **Start** — defines the list: its name, description, and how long the workflow runs.
* **Buyers** — where you configure the Signals Filter and Buyers Filter that determine which buyers are captured, and shows the buyers matched so far with a running count.
* **End** — marks the end of the workflow.

Each step shows a **Ready** status once it's configured correctly. Once all steps are ready, select **Run** to build and activate the list.

### Workflow settings

Configured on the Start step, these control how long a Target List keeps running:

* **Runs continuously until stopped** — Keeps running and checking for new signals until you pause it.
* **Runs until a selected date** — Runs automatically and stops on the date you choose.
* **Runs once only** — Runs a single time, then stops automatically.

Select **Save Settings** to apply a change.
