Once you save a journey in draft mode, you can make more changes to it at a later date or time. The other journey actions like Pause, Resume, Stop, and so on will not be available, as the journey is still not published. The status on the Journey Listings page appears as Draft.

Journey Status
Note
A lengthy journey with many nodes may take up to 5-10 minutes to initiate after you publish the Journey. We recommend publishing the Journey 10 minutes before the required time. For example, if you want the user to start entering the Journey from 2:30 PM, you must publish it at 2:20 PM, considering you selected Now in the Setup node.
