Set a delivery time a few hours away on a test wallet, and watch the transaction move through the states in the [WILL tab](../user-guide/will-tab.md). On such a short horizon, remember to disable or back-date [Check Alive](../user-guide/check-alive.md) so it doesn't interfere.

Set a delivery time a few hours away on a test wallet, and watch the transaction move through the states in the [WILL tab](../user-guide/will-tab.md). On such a short horizon, use **basic mode**, where [Check Alive](../user-guide/check-alive.md) is inactive. In advanced mode a Check Alive date in the past makes the prompt appear immediately.

The plugin always distributes **100%** of the wallet. If your shares don't add up, it recalculates them proportionally — see [Heirs and shares](../user-guide/heirs.md#the-wallet-is-always-emptied-to-100).
